Title: Gardening yet, anyone?
Post by: GhostRider on April 02, 2014, 12:22:14 PM
My little guy and I planted some cilantros, mints and onions couple weeks ago and they started sprouting. He was real excited, running around telling his mother.

I'm too lazy to go find my Garden thread I made last year. And since someone made one. Hehee i'll just follow and post here.  I'll try not to be a thread jacker.

Still cold up here in MN.
I've been watering my Squash plant. Last year MN has a wet season and all my seeds that I planted all roted away. So this year I'm planting them in those cups. It's been growing since last week or two.
I'll post photo up, On my Iphone and yes I suck at these techy stuff. Lol
When the weather gets better, I have to run my tiny tiller to tiller the soil and then I'll plant my babies in the garden.

You didn't know that? Love garden'n. hehee does that make me an FOB ish?? 1st ting I did wen i bought my house I took out all the flowers that the former owner had and turned into my own little planting babies.
Last year I didn't get to grow anyting, all my seeds rotted away... and by that time ti was too late to re plant. But the year B4 that I had so many squash tips to get. With those baby green squash the sizes of your fist. Yummy.. Can't wait for warmer temps.

I'll just plant squash only. For they grow too wild. I had them grow'n out and into other ppl's yard.
And the veins stomped all my water melon plants. and my HmnG cummber, Those big ones that you shave the meat. Add a bit of sugar... Oh man.. I'm getting hungry.

I nursed a dead bonsai back to life only to forget that I had to water it so it died again. Haha. I'm scared of the day I finally become a mom.

I'm excited to start planting too, but can't do anything now since I'm moving to a new house. Last weekend I picked up two high garden beds for free from cg. Now the mister just has to build sturdy beds underneath for me since the old owners' wasn't too sturdy.

Have been dreaming about a small boxed rolling herb and lettuce garden for the deck but don't know if I'll actually do it.  The only "gardening" thing I've done is trim my jades.  The mother jade slumped over a month ago because the leaves were too heavy.  I figured I should trim the leaves on all 3 pots so that they continue to grow up strong.

Saki saki those look like they want a new place to live. If the ground is not frozen you can plant them outside, cut a 2 liter bottle and cover them.

I don't have the luxury of having my own yard so I'm waiting on an available plot at the community garden.
