  1. Cabbage is doing great. I love the purple ones. My wife said she is going to cook them and make me eat it since I planted it. I don't like cabbage. Except for pigs in a blanket. I just like planting different stuff and seeing how it does. My wife is planning on making sauerkraut with the other ones. Cauliflower is doing well. Cauliflower is doing well. and so are the tomatoes.
  2. Candy Onions I put in a couple of planters and some that are in the upper garden. I need to clean and re-stain my table top I built on some tree stumps and the bench I made. I have the stain just haven't done it yet. Well I have a couple weeks to do it. I need to make a to do list because I am getting forgetful lately. .
  3. You inspired me to go out and look at the garden up close and take some pics. It has been awhile and the weeds have almost overtaken some stuff. I hate to weed and usually the paper works great and this year it did also except where I ripped the paper walking on it. I tilled deeper this year and my garden was very soft so when i was planting my knees and feet ripped the paper. Everything did well but the weeds are bad. If you have seen pics of my garden in the past there is hardly a weed. all in all everything is doing great. I even have lots of watermelon. Butternut squash grew so well it climbed up the fence. The plant below is Stevia I should grab some leaves next week and dry them to use in place of sugar since I am diabetic.
  4. Doing pretty good. We finally have onions this year and we have lots of cabbage and my wife has picked some of the broccoli and cauliflower.
  5. On the top right side of the forum page could you add more Latest Posts/ Topics in that section.
  6. they have been doing this overseas for years in fact one place is like 20 stories tall. We are just catching up.
  7. Just off Route 53 outside of Philipsburg just outside of Osceola Mills is a car show every year at Bud Garvey's Vintage Race Museum in a little place called Stumptown. If you make it into Osceola Mills you went to far. This has got to be one of the best Car Show/Cruise-Ins in the area I have been to and I got their late after dozens of cars had already left. here is his facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bud-Garveys-Car-Show-and-Cruise-in/365692940169099 https://www.facebook.com/Bud-Garveys-Vintage-Race-Car-Museum-924818217545280/ They have pics of cars from previous years. I did not take many pics and the ones I did were just to show the size of this. His neighbors actually let classic cars park in their yards. Now I am not sure if they are all related to him but this just goes to show the neighborhood spirit of this thing when you let people walk through your yards looking at cars people from all over have parked in. Across the street is a big field where people can park and walk on over to the festivities. Next year I will get their early.
  8. maybe change the heart emoji for like other than that I cannot think of a thing. Great job.
  9. Congratulations. That is also one heck of a tent they had that one group of cars in.

  11. my red romaine lettuce has already gone to seed in just a few days. They call this bolting and I can harvest the leaves but they probably will be bitter. They do look nice though. lol
  12. could have been crows or some other bird
  13. I am betting every ones gardens are now perking up. Also first year I actually planted head lettuce but doesn't look like they are getting any heads just tons of leaves. I will have to read up on this.
  14. My garden also has taken off. The rain helped but I think the lightning was the key factor.
  15. My cabbage, lettuce is doing great. In the bottom garen looks like the cauliflower, brussel sprouts and Broccoli are getting the leaves eaten by something. I may have to try the vinegar trick and see if it works. Peppers and Tomatoes are in and are pretty much the same as when I planted them. The celery is doing good. The middle of the garden is not bare it has watermelon, squash and pumpkins planted in it. Oh and in pic 5 you can see rogue potatoes from a couple years ago popping up through.
  16. I read this today and thought I would post Maybe those are that are having problems could try this and let us know if it works. 13 uses for vinegar in a garden Blooms are brought back to life . . . Vinegar
  17. I actually planted a bit early this year. I managed to get in lettuce, cabbage, brussel sprouts, etc. They are all doing well. I planted tomatoes and peppers last weekend. I may go out and take some pics later. I had some strawberries that got eaten by something. I suspect a chipmunk. He ate welll they were just turning red.

  19. I almost invested o rdonated in this when they had a fundraiser on indiegogo two or three years ago. The hives system was right around 6 or 700 dollars and I thought about buying one but thought I should wait and see if they actually work like they said. I will have to see if I made a mistake in not investing in one.
  20. I drove over today Bon and they had a few but nothing that I was interested in.
  21. i will have to stop and check them out
  22. I am always looking too when i go to car shows. I was looking for older c10 stepside 2-wheel drive preferably with big block already in it. 1972-1979 but truthfully anything that catches my eye for the right price dodge,plymouth gm vehicles sorry not looking for any Fords. I passed up a couple great deals and am kicking myself for not buying them.
