Got strawberrys and yellow necks planted today.

**KathleenElsie** · 04-11-2011, 08:02 PM

Nes we will be fortunate if we can plant in two or three weeks.

**Nes** · 04-13-2011, 09:54 AM

Just got back from picking up 360 more lbs. of potting soil. That will fill 3 more of my pots.

**Scarecrow2.0** · 04-13-2011, 11:55 AM

my tomato plants are about 4 inches tall now. habanero plants probably still just below an inch. from what I have read habanero plants can be slow though.

**Nes** · 04-13-2011, 01:05 PM

My tomatos are about that size too.

**KathleenElsie** · 04-13-2011, 01:12 PM

My plantings are still on paper LOL.

**Nes** · 05-01-2011, 03:42 PM

Planted 30 mint plants around the yard yesterday. They will take over the yard.

**KathleenElsie** · 05-01-2011, 06:55 PM

Frost warnings two nights ago and expect at the least one more.

**Nes** · 05-02-2011, 09:16 AM

We have A warning for tonight. Sure hope they are wrong.

Cover what you can. My blueberries are in full bloom looks like another bumper crop this year.

**Nes** · 05-03-2011, 09:27 AM

Made it. No frost. Everything is looking good this morning. Going to plant some more this evening. The grape tomato plants are something new to me. Their color is different than I am used to seeing.

**KathleenElsie** · 05-03-2011, 03:30 PM

I like the different flavors of the little tomatoes (my grand daughter call the Baby BOB's) they can be purple, red, pink and yellow. Great for a healthy snack.

**Scarecrow2.0** · 05-10-2011, 06:46 AM

I love tomatoes

they are like candy!

my tomato plants are really taking off.

habanero plants are slow and steady. and I ended up buying some bell pepper plants and seeds, but too late to plant the seeds.

**KathleenElsie** · 05-10-2011, 07:55 AM

LOL this week I got the kids grape tomatoes instead of grapes. They are great snacks. Our tomatoes are still not in we have had frost warnings almost daily so far.

**Nes** · 05-14-2011, 11:56 AM

Got A sack full of radishes today. Planted more seed.

**Nes** · 05-15-2011, 10:24 AM

My new Elephant Ear pocked an Ear out of the ground this morning.

**KathleenElsie** · 05-15-2011, 12:42 PM

Going to plant some plants and sow some seeds this week. Could still get some frost but I can cover things now.

**Nes** · 05-16-2011, 08:18 AM

Watering the front yard and watching the birds play in the water.

**Calvin Wiles** · 05-17-2011, 05:52 PM

I planted the last of my Spring Garden yesterday, which was Okra. We are eating fresh onions. I have Potatoes and Tomatoes Blooming. Blueberries and Grapes with little ones on the vines. Corn and peas looking good. Have peppers, Squash, Spinach, Radishes, Turnips, and Snow Peas growing. Also have Castor beans around the perimeter of the Garden, and Elephant Garlic. Been having a hard time fighting the Weeds, Gophers, and Bugs. With all the rain, I have to spray and hoe, nearly every day.

Boy sounds great. Hope to have alot of that next year. We have not had rain much here so have to water with my well, If I had to use city water I would be in trouble. Just cost way to much.
