Default What's going in your garden?

It's almost time to start planting a garden, so I thought I'd see what everyone is planting this year.

I'm planning on
  • tomatoes
  • onions
  • bell peppers
  • leaf lettuce
  • squash
  • green beans - maybe

purple hall peas, green beans, tomatoes, potatos, squash, okra, jalepenos, banana peppers, and who knows what else.
I will not plant watermelon or cantelope because they never seem to do very good.

I probably won't have a garden this year. In the past I have had success with okra, squash, tomatoes and watermelon.

I tried strawberries, not a good idea.

We've never had luck with watermelon or strawberries either. I've just given up even trying them.

Oh i wish I had a garden but here I don't even have pots *sigh*
But when I have one, I am going to grow a little bit of everything that I can.

We will have corn, tomatoes, jalepenos, serrano chiles, banana peppers, cauliflower, squash, radishes, melons and I think that is about it. I am not sure if they will grow or not but it is worth a try.

my garden is growing!!

we got hit with a late freeze and my tomato and pepper plants died, so I replanted those yesterday. Last week I planted squashes, cucumbers and lettuce - and they're starting to come up now. The onions have been in for a while and are getting big.

I'm so excited! I can't wait until they start producing!

Medako that is great. I haven't been able to plant mine yet well one tomato plant got done. We had really bad winds and one of our trees fell over into the area that we were going to have the garden. Now we are waiting for someone to come out and take the stump out of the ground and fix the fence.

I've turned into a regular lil dirt digger. I go out every day and pull weeks and see how much taller things have gotten.
