Fuck yes! I think I'm going to invest in a grow tent for next season....I may have even convinced my dad to let me put a greenhouse in his back yard lol


My plants are coming along  fairly well. They badly need to get repotted though. They're extremely root bound, dry out every day and are getting stressed out in their tiny containers. I gave them about 4 hours of direct sunlight two days in a row and a few of my peppers are showing sun scald so I need to acclimate them a lot more gradually.

The weather keeps acting up so I'm also strongly considering taking propagative cuttings from my tomatoes so I don't have to manage such huge plants indoors for another few weeks (they're like 2 feet tall lol).


Next year I will have to either start them like a month later or give them a bigger pot. Live and learn

Green house would be awesome!

For the dry plants why not stick em in a container with a little water on the bottom and they drink it up when they feel like…? you have a ton goin tho huh?

Why isn’t there a LAGV(egatables)?

I’m working out of state and my coworkers don’t care about my food crops lol

Because I don't think there are enough people on here who care about food crops either :lol: if I remember in time for next year I'll get that started! Could be a lot of fun

Prizes for heaviest tomato, first ripe superhot pepper, longest carrot, etc then at the end of the season we all exchange seeds

hydropnoic strawberries? is there any advantage to that?
apart from no slugs, and no birds, and plenty of sun and nutes... are they the best strawbs ever?

I’ve never done it before, but hoping they are the best ever!

I chose this system because it’s basically set and forget

I haven't tried hydroponic strawberries yet, but I watched a few videos by this guy,
who has done very well with strawberries and lettuce.
And his system seems pretty nice and efficient.

Very nice Tao! I've been meaning to make an update and say that most of my plants are already in the compost :facepalm: Most of them got a nasty virus, then I got frustrated and insanely busy so a bunch of the others just got neglected but the ones that didn't get fully neglected look...ok :shrug:

I do think that, aside from neglecting them, my seeds came from a low quality vendor which caused the virus.


I still have a dozen plants just not the quantity I wanted and most of the varieties I was really looking forward to are deal lol.


The weather is looking up though and I've got the garden tilled so it won't be long until these are finally in the ground.

Sorry about your loss Bigfoot. Gardening is a lot harder than watching the gardening TV shows on Sunday and expecting the same results as you well know.
I made the mistake of mentioning the varieties of tomato seeds I have and someone said they would take a hundred plants. I know they grow a lot and know how to care for the plants but a hundred plants in my basement is a lot. It’s a lot less than the 1600 plants a friend does every spring. She’s my seed source.
By the by, it’s 4C and snowing here today. Magnolias and daffodils are blooming.
I never put a tomato in the ground before the beginning of June. Burned too often.
You have to love spring.

Hell yea tao, looking prime!

Sorry big foot that’s rough!

I’m still jealous of you both having all that space to grow. I have a tiny apt and a 4x4 grow space lol



My strawberries are flowering but not fruiting, yall think i need to try manually pollinate?

On the left is red cabbage, middle are my peppers that took almost 2 weeks to germinate, and my roma tomatoes on the right. might move that to the yard at work since its already falling over and replace with some Tiny Tim’s that should germ soon.

Hi san pedro guy. I’d hand pollinate. This is my pollination kit. My wife wonders where the brushes go. I put them back eventually. Tweezers are for bigger flowers, pull a pistil and transfer.
Glad you grow in your space. I try to get friends to grow a little something on their balconies or decks. Nice to be able to pick your own.

That's no joke! Even if I don't manage to get ANY of my surviving peppers to fruit I still learned a lot more than I lost so that's a win. I'm mostly disappointed that my biggest losses were due to a low quality seed source. It would sting a lot less though if I screwed something up instead of just being dealt a losing hand. Sometimes life just ain't fair though.


Hopefully next year I'll have even a small hydroponics tent (no plumbing) and a cold frame. I underestimated how much time and space these little guys would take up so any sort of automation will be a major help and I'll have to get creative to get more floorspace...and get a new seed source.


All is fair in love and gardening lol



Regardless of my setbacks I hope everyone else has a bountiful season!

very nice! I'm going to finally get my tomatoes and peppers in the ground Sunday evening and post an update with pictures. Tomorrow night is supposed to get down to 40F otherwise I would have planted them today. I'm sure the plants would handle 40 just fine but I don't want to take the risk if I don't need to

Tomatoes are doing well. 12 varieties I think. Had to start more because Covid has turned people into gardeners. Now I have to teach them to save seeds.
I had someone tell me that tomatoes aren’t suppose to flower in pots because it wasn’t good for them. I told them I’ll have ripe tomatoes by July because I started them in February.
Bees already found the blossoms.
I think I’ll put them in the ground the beginning of June.

nice folks!
I've got a couple of Tom's in pots, (gardeners delight - cheery, and Crush - normal)
and my Yellow Taxi courgette has just gone in the round, so I'll be out every night making sure the slugs are eating the bastard! :laugh:

Looking good guys! I'm super behind on planting. Got some stuff in but it's been a swarmy year for the bees and they've been keeping me busy. At least I got my butternut's and a bunch of greens and peppers and stuff going already. Got some yamato cukes in the ground yesterday.

You guys into mints? There are so many. I scored another wild one from the woods today. It's skunky and pepperminty with serrated edges and a little fuzz. I am excited to see what color and shape/growth pattern the flowers come out. Maybe a dozen mints in the yard here.


When life gives you feral bees.....
