I did a bunch of seeds last year. This year I hit up the nursery. Early girl type. They aren't getting to big though. I think I'll throw some beefsteak out tomorrow. It's funny I spend a lot of time at nurseries now a days.
yours look great mango.. yours must have gotten in way early.. plus mine got in late, lol... lots of fruit, i just have a couple of flowers on a few plants.. do have a few baby cucs though..
oh yeah, and i just saw my first lil white flower on a pepper plant tonight..
Ya I got them in like 2 weeks into May ? Gotta check my post. I did feed them some grow big.yours look great mango.. yours must have gotten in way early.. plus mine got in late, lol... lots of fruit, i just have a couple of flowers on a few plants.. do have a few baby cucs though..
yeah, zucchini get huge.. i didn't get any zucchini this year, just the yellow squash, so that means no zucchini bread, which completely bums me out.Ya I got them in like 2 weeks into May ? Gotta check my post. I did feed them some grow big.
I just threw in some American Pickle cuc and lemon cucumber. My habanero plant has been growing since May 1st and still small as all hell. My white buffalo has already pass it.
The pepperonci are going slow to. Zucchini is taking g off like crazy. Wasn't prepared for the space they take. I'll make it work though
Yours are really taking off, I never have any luck growing tomatoes in containers but yours look great.
I start trays of tomatoes and peppers inside around February/March, everything else direct sow. I've got volunteer tomatoes coming up everywhere outside from last year, a few of them are pretty stout plants so I'll probably let them go.
The Early Girl looks great, I keep meaning to grow a few of this variety but always forget to buy some seeds.
i'm going to do that next year i think.. i didn't have a garden the past two years, and was a bit late in deciding to do one this year, so i didn't have the time to start from seeds..
Exactly, not only are they cheaper you can grow the varieties you want. I save seeds from a lot of things like lettuce and various greens, peas, beans etc. I try to spend as little money on the garden as possible even when I have it to blow, the stakes were a big investment for me. lol
i hear you loud and clear. i grow a garden in the summer to save a bit of coin on fresh veggies, plus it's just awesome to grow your own food imo.. but the point is, it really shouldnt cost an arm and a leg to grow your own food..
Thanks some of em had a small number of bud end rot on flowers not many like 2 or 3 but mostly they are doing their thing
naw never had any of these tomatoes first run and try of em this year
do you just leave them in the pots the entire time?
