The Weekly Gardening Thread is a weekly gathering of folks that love soil, seeds and plants of all kinds. From complete newbies that are looking to start that first potted plant, to gardeners with some acreage, to Master Gardener level and beyond, we would love to hear from you.
If you have specific question about a plant/problem you are having, please remember to state the Growing Zone where you are located.
This thread is non-political respite. No matter what, you wont be flamed, and the only dumb question is the one that isnt asked.
It is impossible to hijack the Weekly Gardening Thread. Planting, Harvest to Table Recipes, Preserving, Good Living - there is no telling where it will go - and that is part of the fun and interest. Jump in and join us! Send a Private Message to Diana in Wisconsin if you'd like to be added to our New & Improved Ping List.
NOTE: This is a once a week Ping List. We do post to the thread during the week. Links to related articles and discussions which might be of interest to Gardeners are welcomed any time!
TOPICS: Agriculture; Food; Gardening; Hobbies
KEYWORDS: food; garden; gardening; hobbies

Blue has never been my favorite color, but the older I get, the more I LIKE blue. I love blue and white, together, and I did collect Cobalt Glass back in the day.
Everything is coming together on this thread! Mason Jars, Hydrangea and Snacks, LOL!

Yep. I clean mine at least once daily-sometimes more. Got the cleaning stuff right there in the cabinet above the commode.

To: Diana in Wisconsin
LOL on the Ball jars meme! 😂

You are the best! Thank you for the advice! My husband will be thrilled to know there is one less garden chore he has to do :)

The double-layer unheated greenhouse growing is really working out better than I had thought. The weather has been cooperating this season - can’t vouch for future seasons, but I’ll take it! :)

Ours came in a kit, but you can usually get anything you need at Farm Tek out of Dyersville, Iowa.
https://www.farmtek.com/
They will charge you an arm and a leg for delivery, so plan ahead, order what you need and make it a Day Trip to pick up your order for free.
We had to buy some more panels and we had a nice lunch, stopped to see ‘The Field of Dreams’ and saw a lot of pretty countryside there and back. We also stopped at Indian Mound State Park and that was REALLY cool!
And, driving over The Mighty Mississippi is always awe-inspiring! :)

You’re welcome! Glad to help. My ‘expensive’ (in more ways than one) education NEEDS to be used as often as possible! :)

I picked up four hedge balls.
There were two or three dozen on the ground and a few left in the tree.

foraging for seeds! I have heard that the osage orange is a great mosquito repellant when set in a dish

Apologies to everyone interested in the tomato bisque recipe. My wife adopted (adapted?) it from an on-line cook book called "The Hungry Bluebird." It's a great mix and I urge anyone who enjoys tomato soup to have a look and give it a try. The key, of course, is to use home-grown tomatoes when they are really coming on in mid-summer. For some reason, I couldn't transfer it to this page...
