The Weekly Gardening Thread is a weekly gathering of folks that love soil, seeds and plants of all kinds. From complete newbies that are looking to start that first potted plant, to gardeners with some acreage, to Master Gardener level and beyond, we would love to hear from you. This thread is non-political, although you will find that most here are conservative folks. No matter what, you won’t be flamed and the only dumb question is the one that isn’t asked. It is impossible to hijack the Weekly Gardening Thread. There is no telling where it will go and... that is part of the fun and interest. Jump in and join us!

NOTE: This is a once a week ping list. We do post to the thread during the week. Links to related articles and discussions which might be of interest are welcomed, so feel free to post them at any time.

It has been cold. My neighbor's water froze. He's hardly ever there, and I keep an eye on the place for him. I got the pipe thawed out, and bumped up the heat in his place.

I guess he wasn't expecting a week worth of weather in the 20s.

It's just wet now. We're at 33F, the high for the day. We had enough snow to get everything muddy.

We had enough snow to get everything muddy.

All we got was graupel..looks like bean bag chair pellets or dipping dots.
