Man, I love some fresh beets.

My first tomato will be ready to pick in 2 more days. Cannot wait.

in other news, twice this week I have spied the prettiest little rabbit in my yard. :angry:

Okay guys, something has been eating up my bell peppers. Leaves and fruit have holes in them. I have broken open the fruits and there is no insect/worm/slug inside them. Cannot find any insects in or around the soil either. Plants are otherwise healthy, but at this rate, I will never harvest any peppers. I sprinkled Sevin dust on them last week, and plucked off all damaged fruit. New fruits have holes in them now even after sevin dust.

Any ideas?

Wow. I am amazed that your eggplants are blooming. I didn't plant any, nor any squash. That makes me sad. I could have grown them in the greenhouse once all the plants came out of there. :banghead:

I usually buy something like Miracle Gro potting mix or the Staygreen potting mix, then add some black cow manure and some perlite. They only stay in that phase for a short time before going into the garden.

Now cucumbers are flowering, pole beans are 4' tall, cantaloupe starting to vine and flower, tomatoes 3' tall and flowering, bell peppers flowering. Lettuce beginning to bolt. Thai basil going nuts, sweet basil slow start. Strawberries bearing fruit, blueberries are loaded, fig tree is disgusted with the cold of winter. Mushrooms producing on and off, had shiitakes the past week.

Hollyhocks starting to bloom, strawflowers 1-1/2 feet tall, nasturtiums getting ready to put on buds, hostas emerging.

Have been perpetually busy raking, mulching, planting, fertilizing lawn, etc. I hope everybody else is having luck so far. We know Pillage is.

Hope they find the person soon. I'll be in that area in 6 months and will not have a firearm with me. Ugh.

Thanks, y'all. Didn't realize it was a tournament. Nuff said. anything past the first game will likely start late. Geaux Tigers!

Looks like a mouthful of Chicklets.

I started tomatoes and peppers yesterday.

Lacy tweaked his hamstring. Try to keep up.
