    Pruning Grape Vines

    Thanks Ron, I had been to that one. From what I've read it seems Feb-early spring is the best time for my area. I just was wondering since I missed that window, should I wait till next year, or do some this yr. Crabbergirl: Me and my kids watch every episode. Thing I don't understand is when...

    Pruning Grape Vines

    I have a grape vine that is in it's second year in my yard. It's about 3 ft tall with many branches. I had never thought about pruning it till I was watching an episode of Hogs Gone Wild, (the hogs were in a vineyard in texas). They showed the lady pruning the vines, and I'm like duh, I should...

    Getting close!

    Well, I just got some help with the fence. Wind has been fierce here lately. Just had a 20 ft section of a dead tree in the woods blow down. Has some pretty straight sections in it. I'll try to remember to post some pics.

    Getting close!

    So that's why it wasn't on the package? Even they don't know. As for the staking, I was thinking of making a fence out of tree limbs/logs. But if I don't know how tall they are gonna get, a 4 ft tall fence might be overkill. The package says to space them 5"-6" apart, and there are 50...

    Getting close!

    I'm putting in some gladiolus. How tall do they usually get? For some reason I was thinking 5-6 ft from years past. My neighbor says 2-3 ft. the package I got em in doesn't give a ht.

    Question about porcelain vine????

    I have read where the porcelain vine is considered invasive. Here is my question. Would it kill the trees it grows on? I have an area of my side yard that is wooded and was thinking of putting some of this in to fill out the gaps between trees. But obviously not if it is going to kill everything...

    What can I start from from seed?

    I'm gonna put the banquet table back in the florida room this week. Dig out all my pots, and get some potting soil or top soil to get started soon. Threw a layer of leaves on the garden this weekend to keep weeds down till I plant. They always seem to pop up before I get in there to plant. Then...

    What can I start from from seed?

    I guess I forgot to add the "inside" part. It would seem most believe I could get started on tomatoes and peppers now? I have a shoplight grow light, I used two yrs. ago. I can't remember when I started stuff that year, but I wanted to get everyone's opinion. Don't want to start things too...

    What can I start from from seed?

    As I'm sure a lot of people are, I am getting tired of waiting for spring. I was wondering what if anything I could get started on for my vegetable garden(from seed). I'm in zone 5 or 6 not sure, depending on which site I enter my zip 44420.

    Grass Cuttings..

    I tried plastic last year. Never again. Too much work for the results. I am definetely going back to the grass clippings this year. As for the post about not top watering your tomatoes, I had never heard that before. I have only been vegetable gardening for like 5-6 yrs. Does anybody else only...

    Rain barrels

    I cut my downspout about 3 ft off the ground so it would empty into the 55 gallon barrel. It worked good, except I forgot to turn it over this year. The water froze, the barrel fell over, and tore the down spout from it's attatchments. As for the mosquitos I put one of those rings for ponds...
