dragon pepper


green onion


herbs: thyme, rosemary, parsley, basil, oregano, and another basil


full plum tomato plant

wheelbarrow full of flowers

ye, buncha beans and tomatoes
it's 3:40am right now, not making pics

[Celirra]

I think green onion is by far the most satisfying thing to grow. You get good flavour from fresh, they're easy as weeds, and you can actually use your harvest many times rather than for just one salad

Hot peppers too I guess, would recommend scotch bonnets for something different

[komochii]

I'm growing cherry tomatoes and they're great I always randomly go and pick a bunch, I could eat cherry tomatoes all day

Also I always grow cucumbers and parsley as well, fresh parsley is amazing to just eat by itself... I've grown raspberries in the past but theyre like, super thorny and I don't like to pick them lol

I might take pics of garden tomorrow morning if I remember

[Sanjixcon]

took a few pics today after watering

just picked the jalapenos.

@mellonxcollie
your garden looks fantastic nice job!

[mellonxcollie]

ooooooh I'm jealous of those jalapenos! I couldn't find any this year so I got the dragon peppers instead.

Your garden looks great as well Sanji ^_^

YEY GARDENING!

I just moved last september to a new house. No veggies yet but might next summer (Or we may focus on a fire pit instead. Up in the air right now!). Right now I'm just trying to save the roses (lots of them) that the previous owner didn't care after. I also brought two of my own rose bushes from the old place. Battling a disease and sprinkling sevin on them every so often. Not sure if I'm winning or not

[roundbox]

plant disease sounds rough ;_;

I really want to do lots more gardening and have some dope plants

maybe even bring one into my classroom

scintill I wanna see dem plants

[SKG_Scintill]

got to making pics

it's been stupidly hot these past few months with barely any rainfall

it's a garden:


tomatoes:


pumpkins:


poor zucchinis aren't gonna make it:


sunflower out of whack:


got rid of the beans, they didn't become green

[mellon_collie]

Oh wow, what an impressive garden!

It's been the opposite lately around here it's been overcast for almost two entire weeks. My plants are doing ok, but they need some sun sooner the better

Wow, Scintill. Very impressive! Do you yourself use all the veggies from your garden?? Also, what do you do with pumpkins? Just carve, or do you cook with them?
Sunflowers are amazing. My husband likes them a lot and again, since I'm spending so much time this year trying to save the front, don't have much time to plan out the back. Not much of a multi-tasker. Didn't know they got THAT big!

sorta, when there's too much of something I either make a thick smoothie or give them away

depends on the year, it's not often that they are actually edible, and if they are, there's way too much of it
otherwise just to decorate the house with until they rot

they normally don't get that big, that flower is unusually engorged
no idea what I'm supposed to do with that thing
july's weather was abnormal, 1.6mm precipitation in a month and 2 weeks where it stayed above 25C including a day where it was 37C
that probably caused it

[Sanjixcon]

noticed my last post was removed from the 2 week rollback so here is an update on the garden (took these today)



probably going to have about 100 lbs of potatoes right here

[mellonxcollie]
