Time to start the seeds!

It seems that you have a big piece of land, friend. It is my turn to envy now, because we are sterting Autumn here and I don´t know if there are any crops I could have this season. We´ll see. Meanwhile have fun with yours and keep us posted.

hi there =) i've been planting for about a year now. i like flowering plants a lot! i've tried red & pink roses, euphorbias, zinnias, and other flowers that i really dont know the name (my neighbors just gave it to me). and now im trying to grow orchids and hopefully they'll bloom soon. i dont know what fertilizers to use for them to bloom faster. i just water them everyday and hoping they don't die. i also have tomatoes, eggplants, some onions, and this week i'll try to plant garlic and carrots too =) happy gardening to us!

Yup... my hands are dirty. :) We started peas and potatoes outside yesterday and will get the turnips and beets in soon. I have tiny onion plants from seed in the house and peppers and tomatoes. I usually direct sow squash and corn, but have been thinking of starting squash in the house this year to give it a quicker start. Lettuce and radishes will go in a container this year to save space for other things. My biggest problem is not having enough room to grow everything I want to. I grew okra last year, so I'll use the room this year for other things. I grew dry beans last year but didn't have enough to last the winter so I want to grow more of them.. and on and on.

there is still a little bit of snow on the ground here (it is left from the piles that they made when we had our last snow storm about 3 weeks ago) and although the temperature is supposed to reach 20 C (70 F) on sunday, it still just a tiny bit too early to start seeds here yet (at least i think so) but my daughter and will be going out with in the next week or so to get some sunflower seeds to start.

I hope your garden does well. Sounds like u are going to have a big one. I envy u that u can do all this. I love fresh veggies. I can't do all that but am a good customer at the farmer's market when it opens. Looking forward to when it does. Happy weekend to u.

I planted the pea into the garden already because they are not scared of the cold so a few cold nights should be fine. I started eggplant indoor - a new try, I didn't do eggplant last year hopefully it will grow here. I want to plant italian squash as well because I love them. I planted too many kinds last year and some of them ended up didn't grow very well because there was enough space for the root to spread out, I'm going to plant less this year and see what happens. One more thing is I have ground hogs and rabbits around my garden, hopefully, I can catch them and not need to worry about having them to wipe out my garden.

Hello OpinionatedLady! I live in a tropical country, so it doesn't matter when to star gardening because we have no threat from the frost here . However, I do start gardening again after not touching the dirt for more than 5 years. We finally bout our first house and it has a space where I can use to grow my plants. It not big, but we can work for it. I have started hollyhock seeds and thinned them. Now I have 2 healthy seedings and they grow vigorously. I love hollyhock, they're tall and so pretty. My mango tree seems to catch a growth spurth, it bears a lot of new stems and leaves. It's still pretty immature to bear fruit though. My sapodilla tree is bearing its fruits and it looks like it is not going to stop soon because I keep on seeing new fruit buds popping out. It is so sweet and definitely a treat! The last but not least, last week we bought carnation, rose and chrysanthemum plants. The mums is fragrant, and when it's rainy, the mist brings the fragrance into our house, it's very relaxing. My Carnation flowers like crazy and I don't want them to stop! I also ordered gladiolus bulbs online, and they will arrive anytime now. can't wait to plant them! I'm planning to turn my gardening space into a cutting garden where I have unlimited supply for cut flowers for my house.
