Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

This would be the wife's garden.  Yes it's really that big.  She has a roadside stand that she and the the grand kids will work.  It started a couple years ago as selling sweet corn and then she and my daughter decided to try other veggie's and Halloween pumpkins.  This is the biggest plot yet.  In addition to everything else she added melons this year.  Her brother works the ground and plants the corn with a tractor, the rest of it is done by people power.  My part is to sit in the shade and shake my head Very Happy

Very nice - I wish I had that much flat, un-tree'd land. I've tried sweet corn, but hubby doesn't want to take down any more trees and there's just too much shade - not all at the same time but I'm estimating no more than 6 ish hours total sun from mid-June to mid-August Sad Does grow really nice beets and green beans, though.

Lovely...I envy the sweet corn and am so sorry you are limited to 1/day Sad 

So far, the only thing out of my garden this year has been the asparagus and rhubarb and today, a frame of honey that yielded 1.25 quarts. The rest I am trying to reclaim from the past 2 years of neglect, stupid old body of mine. At least this year I can dig and pull weeds. My garlic is still growing but it will be small this year - early winter onset and very late spring Mad

Great garden! I'm so jealous.

We haven't really been growing vegetables this year. We have a chili plant and the rest are pretty much growing fruit trees. We did pick nectarines a few weeks ago from one of them and they were delicious! Home grown is the best!

Hughie, you make me homesick, grew up near where Amy lives and we would have a garden such as yours. People in Texas think a big zuke is a little larger than a cuke, lol. They haven't a clue. We got some great maters and cherry maters this year, for the first time ever my peach tree produced 2 peaches so yummy and juicy. That's all my food garden for this year, still have a lot of maters. I planted 2 apple trees but I'm doing something wrong, may have to ask you what the secret is....

Rocio, you're so right home grown is the best.
