trying to get the garden wrapped up here. One of my customers has said she would take my beds and the soil I mixed up. She’s coming on Monday for that. Then my wife and I pack up the car wednesday morning, shaking off the dust from our shoes at the Georgia/Florida line, and heading up to WI...conveniently, just in time to start gardening...:D

One project i want to try is planting a potato in a tire and then adding tires on top of the original (with dirt) until the stack is 5 or six feet tall. Also will need to build my tomato watering devices that i want to try out. Will prolly need to get some seedlings from somewhere up there as there wont be time to start them from seed.

Fortunately, my parents have 15 acres and not all of it is in use for pasture and lawn and whatnot.

Welcome to Wisconsin! All conservatives warmly received ... by other conservatives, that is. ;o)

I have a friend and he plants a lot in tires, and yes, they are quite tall. He paints the tires white. When I try it again, I’m using tractor and truck tires, paint them white and see what happens to the plants.
