my veggie garden sucks (no sun). My flower garden is great.

Just a Heads up :)
I will have to double check but the best time to TRAP and REMOVE them woodchucksters is March / April
Not when your watching your lawn grow :smash:

I never "Removed" one last year :wall:, I plan on getting the drop on them this year .... lmfao

basswipe 02-28-2012 03:10 PM

yes

nightfighter 02-28-2012 08:04 PM

I'm in.

Got a small job today, building a cold frame. Was lucky to find two storm doors at the transfer station, which will make it easy.

JohnR 02-29-2012 09:47 PM

Should we combine it all? DIY, Guns, Home, & Garden?

These guys pull it off quite well: Garden and Gun | Soul of the South

(Seriously)

Raven 03-01-2012 08:47 AM

yesterday, i decided to make a storm stew....
with beef, carrots, celery, broccoli ,red potatoes, red bell pepper,scallions,porta bella mushrooms,....ect.
and it cost around $40.00 bucks in ingredients. Yikes!
But it came out SUPERB... the snow is wet and heavy and i needed energy+ .
This year i am growing everything in Pots 1-5 gallons (totally mobile)
and then i will be
planting them in the ground after cutting more root holes in the bottom which
will facilitate the roots getting out and make watering and weeding a breeze.:uhuh:

JohnR 03-01-2012 09:12 AM

OK - we'll try this again without the tangent taken

RIROCKHOUND 03-01-2012 09:23 AM

Sorry John...
yes it would be useful to ask questions about garden and even lawncare!

Raven 03-01-2012 09:49 AM

the word GARDEN is used with a broad brush
and usually means ornamental s (flowers)
and shrubbery or landscaping ones yard.

Growing food is a whole different subject.
Gardens and Guns isn't about food gardens.

I made some delicious waffles for my son for breakfast this morning. He likes to put mini chocolate chips on them.

justplugit 03-01-2012 11:53 AM

Rav, $40 for stew is about right, It costs me over $20 to make chicken
soup.
Crazy, there is no inflation. :doh:

I make blueberry pancakes for my Grandkids using "Heart Smart Bisquick"
and add egg whites for whole eggs. Pretty healthy, taste betta then the Diner's and fill ya up real good on a cold day. :)

Can't beat growing herbs either, they are sky high $$$.

they are habitually "on time" and you can take advantage of that trait
with stealthy observation as to when they come out to play in your garden.

new jack 03-02-2012 08:40 PM

I'm into the giant pumpkin growing as well. Been doing it the last 3 years now. My best was about 250.

Maybe we can get a pumpkin growing contest going.

I would love to get my hands on some seeds. My kids would dig the giant pumpkin thing.

cheferson 03-03-2012 08:08 AM

Grew a pumpkin when I was 10 that wouldn't fit into the wheel barrow ! Won 1st at the local fair that fall . If you guys are serious , may wanna try this 1229 - Mycos - Mycorrhizal Inoculant 2.2lbs .

Saltheart 03-03-2012 12:24 PM

Had a girlfriend who's father used to sit on a porch and spit his watermellon seeds over the rail. One took root and grew a ginormous watermellon that eventually was entered in a fair and took second place. :)

new jack 03-03-2012 06:20 PM

Pretty sure I still have a bunch of seeds from my 250lber. I'd be happy to dole some out to whoever wants some. Though I cannot guarantee they will actually sprout.
