other dog Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 As we all know, i'm not one to toot my own horn........................................................................................................................................................................................OK, now that you're done laughing- I have to say, my garden is the best ever this year. Not because of anything i've done different, but we've had some rain this year where in the past several years we had rain early then none the whole rest of the summer. Had tomatoes ripe weeks ago, onions and cabbage are biggest ever, got snap beans on the vines, and the yukon gold potaters did well too. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 For $100.00 I will tell you about a top secret thing called a sprinklerI'm afeared to water it much, wells dry up in this area regularly. I did water it some last night because my green beans that looked so good last week looked like they were just about to dry up and die from the intense heat.
