Ping to the Weekly Gardening Ping List.

I hope all of you will stop by.

This is typically a low volume ping list. Once a week for the thread and every once in a while for other FR threads posted that might be of interest.

If you would like to be added to or removed from the list please let me know by FreepMail or by posting to me.

Add me to the list.

And, am I the only person on the planet who has had problems growing potatoes?

You’re an early bird RD.

I’m all well now and looking forward to a small winter garden of greens, lettuce, onions and a few other cold hearty vegetables.

Good Morning!

It is finally cool and sunny in S. Florida after a week of thunder, Lightening, Rain, Wind, flooding, and tornadoes.

I spent the morning cleaning out the planting beds of summer weeds! };-)

It has really cooled down here in SC. Not much hope of getting anything that needs pollinated from now on. I was hoping to get some late sugar peas but my hopes are dimming. Last of the tomatoes are ripening still and still hoping the last sweet corn will mature.

We continue to have a pleasant Indian Summer here in Benderville in far north west California. I hope to get my 7 or 8 varieties of Garlic planted today as the bed in spaded, raked smooth and the rows marked out. The soil is nice and damp from the early 4" of rain we had the end of last month. We still have the flowers on the deck to pull and compost but that is minor compared to the garden cleanup.

A few weeks ago, frost killed half my garden. That half had stopped producing so I didn’t cover it. Now everything that had died is resprouting from the roots. I didn’t know cucumbers and sweet peas could do that!

The beans I picked before they were dry are drying nicely off the vine. I’m shelling them as the pods turn hard, I’ve got a nice big pile of seeds now :)
