What's new?

YARD of the MONTH. Updated March 20, 2011). 1) Looks like I've been delinquent in keeping you guys current. I missed posting February's minutes last month, so I'll do double duty this month. Both February's (now approved) minutes are posted, as are March's unapproved. Please review March's closely. I took sketchy notes in Connie's absence, and BOY they don't make much sense to me today as I write them up. 2) Does an inch and a half of rain give you new hope for the spring? The site has been revamped sinc...

Greener Ground: 6/10/12 - 6/17/12

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2012_06_10_archive.html

Sunday, June 10, 2012. Just a quick update as not much is going on in the garden and my business is really picking up now like it does every year when it starts raining. Since my Colorado Rose potatoes did so poorly I decided to try again with some red potatoes that began sprouting from the grocery store. I cut the sprouting eyes off of them before cooking,. The sweet potatoes are growing real well. They should be ready around the end of July. Last year grubs destroyed most of my sweet potatoes&#...Veget...

Greener Ground: 1/13/13 - 1/20/13

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2013_01_13_archive.html

Wednesday, January 16, 2013. January 15, 2013. It's been a while since the last update but that doesn't mean things haven't been going on. I've been planting and harvesting a few things but the important thing is I finally got my beds finished! Now I can concentrate on growing food without looking at pallets of concrete blocks and compost needing to be moved and built into beds. A shot across the new beds I finished building last month. Next we have some Celebrity Tomatoes purchased from Lowe's. When...

Greener Ground: 2/24/13 - 3/3/13

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2013_02_24_archive.html

Saturday, March 2, 2013. So here we are at the beginning of March and now it feels like it should in February. But that is not stopping the garden from growing. The nice thing about the cold air is that the bugs aren't so active. I did have an infestation of caterpillars on my tomatoes but the Monterey insect spray took care of them. I planted a couple Green Bell Pepper plants along with some Pink Beauty Radishes. The radishes are supposed to be a mild tasting variety. Next we have the Celebrity Tomatoes...

Greener Ground: 2/17/13 - 2/24/13

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2013_02_17_archive.html

Saturday, February 23, 2013. Feb 23 and we're cooking. A quick update with a recipe I just can't get enough of. My wife got me started on stuffed Jalapenos but one thing I dislike is spicy food. They were kind of addicting but the heat I could do without. Some tmes one would be particularly hot and that would end it for me. I know I'm a whimp but that is just how it is. So what do we do with a bowl of them? 1 lb pkg of Tennessee Pride mild sausage. Enough peppers to use up the mixture. It says to put one...

Greener Ground: 7/22/12 - 7/29/12

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2012_07_22_archive.html

Saturday, July 28, 2012. Summer heat and some things sweet. We had success with some of the herbs but the red potato pieces I planted did nothing. They started to grow then abruptly died. Here are a few pics of what we have going on today. Along the east side of my house the papayas have really taken off and the small avocado is loaded with fruit. Several avocados have just fallen off but I think it is because the tree is still very small. I'll be surprised if most of these grow to maturity. Sweet potato...

Greener Ground: Mid November update

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2013/11/mid-november-update.html

Sunday, November 17, 2013. A quick update today. One quick shot of cool air and it's back to being hot for this time of year. At least it is not too hot to grow and things are coming along. The peppers haven't done too much yet. A few Fooled You Jalapenos and finally a California Wonder Pepper is fruiting. With the wind being pretty strong lately the peppers have taken the brunt of it and they have been beat up. Here is the next crop of green beans. They are the same variety as was in the eggplant be...

Greener Ground: 10/7/12 - 10/14/12

http://greenerground.blogspot.com/2012_10_07_archive.html

Sunday, October 7, 2012. The Carambola tree is just busting out with blooms I even found a couple fruit hiding up inside it. We like these and since they cost $1.99 each at the local Publix this tree already paid for itself after the first 10 I picked. Here is the pumpkin vine. You can see the damage the pickleworms do to the leaves. Then they burrow into the flowers and any fruit that begin to form already have a worm inside which destroys the fruit. Here is a future cucumber in it's infancy. Here are t...
