Thank you both....I didn't even think of the wind exposure and "pure" sunlight issue. I was wondering why articles said filtered sunlight, never knew what that meant! Thanks again!

I have some flowers planted in my "sunroom". This room is south south/west facing and is mostly windows. It technically is not heated although the chicken brooder light does put off heat and of course, on a sunny day it is warm in there. Do my lil plants still need hardened off? They are on the...

This is my first time with the meaties also. We have already had one at about 5 weeks due to slow growth and a bum leg. The rest will stay here for another 2 1/2 weeks. They are in their chicken tractor but everyday when I go out to move the tractor and give food and fresh water, they go out to...

Well, we went to our local nursery today and have decided on Leyland Cypress trees. My hubby loves them and likes the fact that they will still provide privacy in the winter months. My WHOLE plan is out the window now though! We are only getting 2 grown ones right now due to expense but may get...

Cat: that's what I'm afraid of doing, poor selection! Like I said new to this stuff and have spent all of my free time researching plants and veggies and quite frankly I'm tired of research lol. I have printed a pic of the area I will be raising up so hopefully if I take that to nursery, they...

There is a big difference on thinking of "payback" and acting on it! We are the only neighbors to each other, the other 3 sides of us are all nature. That is why it so annoying when even visitors ask if the neighbors always stare at our yard. Yes it is their fence that is why I can't do...

I believe I'm in zone 6a if I remember correctly. I'm new to gardening of practically any kind this year! I have merely dabbled before. Might head down to local nursery for their thoughts too.

Thistlebloom: I am already going to be doing morning glories for our deck for privacy from them so I think I want something new! Will honeysuckle stay filled in for a while or even come back next year? So lucky: Unfortunately, they are just down right rude so there is no hope of agreeing on...

Hello all. I am new to this site...found it from BYC!!! I am hoping to get some ideas on what to plant in an area that will give us some privacy. We are in the process (3rd and final year) of filling in our backyard to level it out. This WILL be completed this spring lol. My issue is my nosey...
