    How are those Tomatoes?

    Our tomatoes have been in the ground for about 3 weeks and are growing like crazy. All look super healthy except one, whose leaves are a funky color and curled in on themselves. Haven't been able to identify the problem yet. Several of our plants have little tomatoes set on them. Can't wait...

    would like to see your 2013 garden

    Thanks, Major. Definitely a work in progres - we add a little more each year. BJ - we've had these panels laying around for a couple of years and finally put them in place to take advantage of vertical growth. Should make harvesting the beans and cucs much easier.

    Calcium for tomatoes?

    Meggsy, I'm trying bone meal this year to improve calcium availability (among other things). From everything I've read, it is very good for your plants. Guess we will find out if it helps with BER.

    Asparagus

    Southern, how big is your asparagus patch, or maybe the question should be how many plants? That looks like a nice harvest!

    Weehaw! Berries are blooming!

    Isn't it exciting, Marshall! Ours are blooming, too, and I think our Black Satins are growing little bitty berries! Our berries are young - planted last year - so we are waiting impatiently for them to get huge so we have tons of delicious berries. Way too fun!!!

    Got some more things in the ground!

    I am impressed, Secuono. We just had 3 pigs processed by the butcher. Couldn't make ourselves do the deed. Nice job!!! :thumbsup

    Done planting!!! How is your garden growing???

    Us too, Lucky - too early for anything that doesn't like frost and cold nights, though our days are sunny and beautiful now.

    replanted strawberries today!!

    Hey, Honeycomb, what about some rhubarb with your strawberries? That might work and it would also be pretty and very easy-care.

    Progress...

    Around here you have to force yourself not to plant too early. Our days are beautiful, so the temptation to plant is overwhelming, but we still get frost at night. Down on the valley floor everybody has been growing for quite a while, but up here we still have to wait until the beginning of...
