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 a non-political respite. No matter what, you won’t be flamed, and the only dumb question is the one that isn’t 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!
Great! I’m going to direct seed two large pots I have with the mix; they’ll be near the raised garden beds. Added extra of the ‘Persian Carpets’ Zinnia, and starting my every-day Zinnia today. One more day of warm weather, then back to regular Spring temps - which is fine with me - it’s been in the 80’s!
The furnace is OFF for the season, even if we get a little more snow. ;)
New thread for the week, starting in a few...
Good job Eric! In addition to animals and cold those covers also protect your emerging seedings from being washed out or knocked over when you get a heavy rain!
