When do you plant your onions?
as soon as i can get them and on a day the Farmers Almanac says to plant them...Monday, 12/4, is when i was going to plant but the feed store doesn't have Texas Legends yet...Dixondale Farms has a 10/20/10 mix that i use at planting, then 21/0/0 every 3 weeks...

Farmers Almanac December 4th - 5th Start seedbeds and flower gardens. Good days for transplanting. Most favorable days for planting beets, onions, turnips, and other root crops where climate allows.

just ordered a case of the texas legend from dixondale should ship on 12/11 . So anybody in the weatherford /west ft.worth area needs any you can come to weatherford and get them at case pricing . No way I can use 30 bunch's but I was not willing to pay half case price for what I needed.

Prune them way back. Almost to the ground with just a few inches exposed.

Once it's been frozen and limbs are damaged, yes.
I have left the bigger strands of lantanas that didn't get frozen in the past.....but it just gets too leggy the next season for the spot I have them. You will see the ones that are still alive once you start cutting. For sure trim the dead stuff.
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youดre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Should I stick with my soaker hoses or go with this on my new raised bed garden? http://www.rainbird.com/homeowner/products/drip/GardenersDripKit.htm
