It's not late...I'll be planting tomatoes for the fall garden in the next couple of weeks...Now would be a good time to start preparing to plant squash, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, etc. There are two times to plant/harvest, spring and fall...You usually plant a couple of weeks before spring and a couple of months before fall...

You've got time to plant most anything as long as we don't get an early winter. Be prepared to spend some money for the water bill. wink

2- grand marconi peppers
8 sweet banana peppers
2 japs
3 okra
3 anaheim
2 small maters
squash bugs are getting bad, but I am still getting 1-2 every other day or so. I'm going to try to bust their arse with liquid sevin once it quits raining.

I'm also attempting to clone a tomato plant.. We'll see how that goes, but I am expecting failure.

Time to start thinking about the fall garden and how and what I want for it.

I tried the cloning just like in the video that was posted here , and even with no root hormone I have been able to do two different plants...those little swell up when you water them peat pots work great...hope yours works well...Thanks for the help on the peppers LSS, I have decided it wasnt as big as I thought and I will give it a few more days...just put out Zuccini, Yellow straight neck , some more Broccoli and another 19 tomatoes that should have been out before now, but they should do good. Have some okra seed on the way too...

Anybody ever had any luck controlling Bahaia grass (thank you, A&M eeks) in the yard ? I'm surrounded by miles of it and although it's a great pasture grass, I kinda get tired of mowing the lawn every other day.

RoundUp will kill it but who wants huge dead patches all summer ? wink

I need some help trying to find out what is doing this: My Mom in New England planted some pole lima and pole green beans. These have been in the ground for about 3 months. Something is cutting the plants 3-4 inches from the ground. What can cut the plants just like someone is cutting them with a knife. Any ideas? The stock is about the size of a pencil.

Thanks for the info. She went to a local farm in the area and they told her cutworms are active only in the spring. I think it's the cutworms no matter what they say. She ended up wrapping the bottom 6" of the plant stem and no more cutting. Thanks again

If she can dig down around the plant a few inches it possible she will find the worm.

good luck.. I cheated and built above ground beds. The Acme Brick plant is here for a reason. South Denton clay is like concrete in the summer.

I'd probably stay away from growing peppers and tomatoes from seeds...I'd plant squash, cucumbers, watermelon or cantaloupe seeds...I'd get pepper and tomato plants from a local nursery or small hardware store...Most sell 4 packs for $1.50 or less...

Hey everyone.. I have been trying to find some plants to put outside of my apartment in a plant box I'm going to attach to the balcony railing.. It will get a LOT of sun, and I'm very forgetful at times when it comes to watering regularly.

Any advice on something that wont die, wont grow all over the place, and does not need a lot of love?

Took the family to a community garden at Our Saviour Church off Jim Miller and Hwy 175. This was a really nice one with chickens and all, but was most impressed with these tomatoes 12' tall!! Don't know exactly what the jugs of water do? they had no holes.

Bag of miracle grow soil, vermiculite and perlite, to help keep aerated and retain moisture. Something with a woody stem will be a hardy plant and might do better . With a little love and care most anything will do.

There's a product called "Soil Moist" at Lowe's. It's a polymer that absorbs water then releases it as the plant's needs dictate. Don't use too much. It'll swell up and push your plants out of the ground. mad
You're gonna have to water until the plants get established but portulaca (rose moss) , cacti and succulents like "hen and chicks" will all do well with minimal watering.

Go ahead and till some good manure into your soil and get the soil tested.

Just finished canning my first pickles. Tomorrow's agenda includes blackberry jelly and salsa. One bad thing , though, my serranos aren't hot this year. What's the deal ? Are they breeding a "heatless" serrano now or have I finally burned out my pain receptors ? hmmm
