Holy Cow what growth rate !!!

I've looked everywhere for these PVC fittings in the past. Thought you guys building cold frames and all might could use them.

I'm gonna wait until late Jan this round. Planted too early last season for this area, lost them all last year.

35 day's in hydro , nice lettuce and

I hope the colliflower stops growing and starts producing .

Man that's a great looking crop trlrman! I'm working on some 30 day lettuce myself (from seed). But looks like it may be 40 until they are fully ready to harvest. But if I can pluck some leaves off and put them on a sandwich in 30 days, I'm calling it 30 day lettuce damit!

So this gardening thread is very long, not going to read through 350+ pages...

Anyone ever grown an avocado tree from the pit? Is it worth doing in Texas? Any advice is welcome.

Never tried to, but I think you are always better off getting a potted on at a good nursery.

You're unlikely to be successful, unless you're somewhere in the RGV. Freezes are too tough on them, even the more cold hardy Mexican varieties.
There's something about having to grow at least 3 avocado trees in order to get fruit production, due to the female flowers being open at different times and receptive to pollination. I don't remember the exact deal about that, but you need more than 1 tree. My mother in law had one in her backyard (they live about 20 miles from Mexico in the middle of the "winter garden" area of Texas, and her tree was 25+ feet tall and never produced fruit.
I've always wanted to plant a few of them, but there isn't enough sunlight on the south side of my house to grow any.

Just found a publication from Texas A&M. They take several pages to say what I said, but here it is anyway...

added a 2x6 on top of the 2x8 to get more depth of soil...will add compost/top soil mix...

planted 4 rows of TX Legend and TX Early White onions on the 9th...will plant 3 more Legends in the middle on the 22nd

Looks great! I'm going to get started on my raised beds soon. Found a place that carries mushroom compost about 15 miles away.

hey Derek, make sure it's 100% mushroom compost...there's places here in Nac that say it is, but they mix it with other stuff...it'll be hot and heavy...not loose/flakey...

I'll probably get a scoop of the mushroom and organic compost to mix together.

Mushroom $31.00 cubic yard
Organic Compost $26.00 cubic yard
Mulches $30.00 per cubic yard
