Good Luck with your crop....Laura

When all the tops turn brown. Just keep uncovering 1 hill and look for potatoes. It will take a few months to get a good crop. Heres anouther post on growing potatoes http://www.theeasygarden.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22347 http://www.theeasygarden.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22561

Oh yeah, stick them suckers in the ground sprout side up, cover with soil and wait for potatoes. Cut the potato up and make sure you have eyes in every hill.

My grandmama, would always sprinkle a couple of spoon fulls of Epsom salt around a pepper plant when she put it in the ground. She said it would help with yellowing and make the stems strong.

Thank you that was sweet.

I have tried every thing and nothing has worked, they will sit in the trees and eat them with me watching. I have resigned myself to never getting any peaches from those trees so I now buy them on my way home to SC.

Welcome :rose

I would make sure what ever you plant is of a dwarf variety so it will not get to big. Azaleas have a variety that has small leaves and flowers, how about Hostas, they come back every years. Japenese Maples are slow growing specimens, I have the regular and the lacy leaf variety in my yard...

God you make me feel tired and lazy just reading your post. Congrats on a fine work day.

Hey Dixie

The best tool I have ever used is The Old Farmers Almanac. I would advise anyone planting a garden to get one and read it from cover to cover. There are lots of tips and ideas to help the small gardener. You can also Google it and look at it online.
