I would love your garden... I like containers everywhere. Do you only container garden (sorry, I'm a bit of a newbie on these threads so I'm not familiar), or do you have space in the turf as well?

“(sorry, I’m a bit of a newbie on these threads so I’m not familiar), or do you have space in the turf as well?”

Let’s see if I can bring you up to date about this weekly gardening thread fairly quickly. There are two weird people who post here - one is me and one is JRandomFreeper - Johnny. The rest of the posters are normal people.

I started trying to grow food plants in about March of this year. I planted some plants in the dirt garden and they were all murdered by squirrels and birds and insects in the garden dirt plus the Texas sun burned them up. I swore off garden dirt as plant murderers live there and the sun also kills them.

I have a fairly large wooden deck, so I started over and grow only in containers with potting soil mix. I have a murdering squirrel or more than one as I don’t know the individual names of the squirrels as they haven’t told me. I have a squirrel trap on the deck to try to catch him or them.

The only plants in the dirt garden are in one long planter on top of the dirt and Egyptian Walking Onions are in that planter.

Welcome to the gardening threads.
