Thanks Derek

per Derek's instructions, i added these 3 - 4x4 beds to the end of my 2 - 4x32 beds...but i hava problem...





my wife's new puppy tromps thru them...Bernese Mountain Dog 100+ pounder in a few months...where can i get a short fence (2 ft tall+/-) to keep her (the dog) out of them

You might as well start training her to stay away from the garden completely . It's only a matter of time before she gets in the taller beds .

yep, got sum 14" tall wire to get thru the puppy stage...maybe...

now for more important info...what do yawl use as an indicator when to pull taters...after bloom...?...when the tops start dying...?...when ur hungry...???

crapyetr you�ll need to spend time training that pup . That�s a breed I�d love to have but it�s way too big for me or the wife to take care of . It�s a beautiful dog ! When training just teach it the understanding of just �no� in a firm but gentle voice . If you use loud voices it just scares puppies mostly . Also a good technique is when using the no command just raise your hand in a calm gentle stop motion . When they learn no with the hand sign you can gradually just use hand sign without even speaking . Never use an object in hand cause the puppy might become afraid of objects and you when you pick up something . It�s a natural instinct as you know for any dog to check out and dig places in their backyard . Be patient , that Burmese will be a puppy until it�s 2 yrs old .

When the tops die .

I'm pretty well loaded on green tomatoes. Here are two of my six. I'll still be giving them away. I gave up making salsa and marinara.

Looking good Bill! What variety of tomatoes are your growing?

Celebtries.

Talking to myself here. But been watching the cukes on the weekends. Bees are working them at 11am again. Not real heavy honey bee activity but they are there. Checking the garden tonight at 6pm and there was one lonely honey bee working surprisingly. Lots of solitary bees visiting throughout the day which is really nice to see. It seems to bee enough to get proper pollination. Growing Jackson Supreme F1 and H19. Started picking tonight.

my wife's idea...ordered this mailbox to keep my garden tools in so they wouldn't rust and i could find them...for some reason, it came as a 2-pack...what a deal

There is always a little something wrong with your first tomatoes. I picked a couple of cat faced ones today. Great ones coming next week. I'm a full two weeks behind last year.

Gave a sack away and still had enough from this week's gathering to put some up for winter

Anyone know what this is? It�s growing in my St. Augustine... I can�t kill this [censored] at all.

3rd pullin'...ate a few with butter...yum...now waiting on Roma II green beans to ripen...full blooming right now
