I planted a new garden.


I cleared out a firewood area and rototilled some Oak leaves into the soil with some cow shit. Four three gallon Lilacs trees and six yards of mulch.

It should be real pretty.

How is your garden growing?

Sounds lovely 😊.

I've been helping dig up a garden today. It's coming along slowly as I have to fit it in around work (and rain 😓) but it will be great once finished.

We're extending the lawn area, then at the top of the garden we're putting a vegetable plot one side and a flower garden the other side.

My back is hurting but it will be worth it 👌

Thanks, good sun on that spot so it should turn out well.

The yard is constant work but worth it imo. And yes, the thighs and lower back sure do ache after all the gardening.

Just planted two new plum trees and two new apple trees in my front yard, also planted two pears at my dads office at his request. It is a great workout digging all those big holes

Nice!
I just saw Lemon trees at the Home Depot the other day. I didn’t know you could grow them here in New York!

You would be surprised what grows well up north, I had much success with my peach trees

I just ordered a used copy of Plants Versus Zombies for the DS - I'll let you know in a week or two how its going.

Please do keep us informed!

I suspect between the weeds and the zombies my potato crop will be slim this year.

Gonna plant it good! You got some tomaters in there, some leafy greens and some

reply

Yes, my garden beds are quite productive.

The secret is cow shit, lots of cow shit tilled at least 6 inches into the topsoil and an angry mean dog to run off the woodchucks and cottontails.

My tomatoes and cucumbers are top shelf produce.

You planted nothing and liked it.
