Jack & The Beanstalk

I don't even have any seeds in Grandpa Bob. I am in such a mess this year - but better than last! My veg patch is overgrown, but I have started work on a new herb garden. I've had to clear brambles, a holly tree and an evergreen hop. Now I need to dig the soil over, condition it and get planting! I shall put a tube of peas in a piece of gutter to start. I find that's the easiest way to get 'em going. Your bean shoot looks good. Not knowing its colour is half the fun.

I don't have any veggies growing, but all of my perennials are looking good. My clematis, which normally flowers twice a year, flowered three times last year. I'm hoping for a repeat of that since it looks like another warm day or two will see flowers on it.

Yep my beans and peas are sprouted and the rain has really got them growing. My tators are lookin good. The dog dug up my radishes again and is henceforth banned from the backyard till I can put in an electric underground fence around the garden. I just put out 5 heirloom tomato plants today and have 12 more to find a place for (yeah I got carried away). I ma going to post pics as soon as the infernal rain stops.

i did that last year. i started some plants and they seemed to get off to a good start and then...my cat ate them! seriously, i was not impressed! my cat knows no bounds when it comes to the house :-( (she is the king, or rather queen.)

I'll learn from your mistakes and color code my seedlings and my garden! My flowering pear trees are beginning to bloom, they are so pretty! I can't wait to put things in the ground!

No I havent even put the seeds in yet. I dont know what I am waiting for lol.

I don't have space in my house to start plants from seeds. Perhaps next month, if the temperatures are moderate enough I can start some seedlings and keep them on the enclosed porch. That way I can get a head start on the plants I hope to have in my garden. If not, I will purchase a few from a local grower.

LOL AGB I can just imagine you climbing your Giant Beanstalk in a few months honey! I haven't planted anything yet but we have 2 new bunnie rabbits that we expect to grow a lot as they are only 9 weeks old - does that count? lol Hugs xxx

No beans here. I don't have a green thumb. Seems that you do. Maybe you might let me borrow it? I just never developed the talent I guess.

We haven't even started anything yet..haha. My husband said he wants to grow peppers this year, and I want to at least grow tomatoes, they're getting so expensive in the store.

i have planted some seeds yesterday. i have scattered the seeds on the soil at the side of my house. there is some small portion a very small portion of soil there. hopefully it will sprout and grow soon. cause it is summer now the time when this seed grows fastest and bear more fruits.

Wow! where did that came from. how long did it take you to make it grow. must be nice that something like this happens, makes your hard work worth while. well, we don't have time to start planting these season because of work and our previous plants.It's really hard to make plants grow or even seeds.

No, Grandpa Bob! Every time I plan to spend the day doing gardening something happens. I went to plan it one day then *Boom* rain! The next time *Boom* Snow! So, I am wanting to do it this weekend so I hope it will work and the weather will let me! If not I am about to go get a bunch of dirt and fertilizer and fill my tub and plan in my bathroom. LOL I will have to share the kids bathroom then! **Peace and Love get's you through everything in Life**

A healthy plant. I ussually soybean planting, and I rarely mark, only flush if not diligent rain, and provide appropiate fertilizer

I wish I had a garden to watch it sprouting and then enjoy the goodies later on. I get the feeling that your garden is sort of like can veggies with no lable on them? hahahahaha

Hi GRANDPA BOB, Its so nice to see the new shoots come up and makes you feel so proud that you started it, hope you'll get many beans from it. I haven started mine yet. Tamara
