kale/chard/squash/cucumbers/lettuce planted a week ago, 8 pepper and 22 tomato plants sitting indoors waiting for a few more days...this snow thing is not amusing
Heck yeah! Depends On how much I get. First year harvest should be very small. I have a good recipe for a Cream Ale that is my everyday brew. If I get a lot I may do a dark IPA. It requires 10 Hop Additions. If i get middle of the road Ill make a Milk Stout that I love.Originally Posted by fj605
In a way I am glad that my seedlings seem to be slow starting. I would be really pissed if I were in your situation.kale/chard/squash/cucumbers/lettuce planted a week ago, 8 pepper and 22 tomato plants sitting indoors waiting for a few more days...this snow thing is not amusing
Pitch some sort of tent over the garden with tarps? The ground should be warm enough to keep them warm-ish.
Next year I an going to do more bucket taters I only did 3 buckets because I am learning. They are easy to bring in the garage on these isolated cold snaps. I have already had to put more dirt in the buckets, and going to add more today.

Great I'm gonna start moving my shit into the garage
I held off planting anything yet. I am getting ready to till one more time before I get everything planted. Trying the box tatters thing too this year. Will see how the turn out is. Once done snowing I will be posting pics of the garden this year.
I really wanted to build a 5x8 raised garden bed last weekend, and get it planted, but I'm glad I didn't have time. Hopefully next weekend I can get it built and planted.

If you need help lemme know
Thanks man, I think I'm good. It should be relatively simple, but a few things are going to make it take a lot of time. I'm going to tie it into my sprinkler drip system so I won't have to worry about watering, and that is going to be the biggest PITA.
Still haven't decided what I'm going to grow in it yet though. We wanted to do some peppers and tomatoes for sure, but we haven't decided on anything else.

Just like TFogger we used some old sheets and some old beach towels. If this wasn't a rental I would have put up a small greenhouse.
My greenhouse already got denied by the HoA in my back yard.
One of our requirements when we buy is no HoA. We already put up a 10x10 fenced dog area, so no shed or greenhouse. I might take the dog area down since we only put it up to contain ours to try and plant grass seed in the back yard but it never took. The previous occupants rode dirt bikes back there and according to neighbors changed fluids on them and let the old run right into the ground. Really bad part of snow and rain is the mud pit we get back there and some muddy dog paws to go with it.My greenhouse already got denied by the HoA in my back yard.
