ChenierauTigre

Different set of circumstances. Plus, a few of our coaches are quite familiar with chambliss. Last year is past history.

It is too damn hot to walk to the mailbox, much less tending a needy garden.

Do you plant hollyhocks? Mine have been champs, and they produce a ton of seeds.

Next year I am going to plant the dwarf variety and see how they do.

Thanks, y'all. It is in September, so a change could happen. I am going to chill now and try not to worry about it.

We used to have one when I was a kid. But they were not bleached. They smelled horrible for half the summer when we had to add more. :yack: Finally we paved it.

My cucumbers started out with only male flowers. Then the females flowers showed up. I pollinated with a paintbrush and got a bunch of fruit. After that, the pollinators got to work.

I am a 70 year old woman. I have wrecked my back trying to keep up an acre of lawn and gardens and flower beds. I try to work smarter, not harder now. I had a large compost tumbler years back, but when it got full, I could hardly turn it anymore.

That cement mixer has been my best friend for years. :lol: I coated the inside of the barrel with fiberglass to make it last longer, and painted the outside with black paint to make the sun heat it up more. I make compost year round.

I have four large enclosures like 81tiger for my vegetable gardens, mushroom house, and all the blueberry bushes. And two smaller enclosures for strawberries. Sick of fighting varmints.

Bunny still hanging around. It is darling. I have not seen any evidence of a family. It is still small. It will let me walk up to it, but runs if I talk sweetly to it.

Picking lots of blueberries, strawberries, pole beans and cucumbers. Tomatoes are beginning to ripen, but slowly.

I have a can of beer I keep just for that purpose. Bar is open, you slimy bastards.

Thanks y'all.

That foxtail is gorgeous. :drool:
