I'm an inconsistent gardener - some years I plant a lot, others I get too busy and let the season pass by.
I'm trying something new for me this year - I went to the Atlanta Local Food Initiative's fruit tree sale in January, and went *way* overboard. I came back w/ 2 pawpaw trees, 2 fig trees, a serviceberry tree, 2 elderberry bushes, a goji berry tree, 2 hazelnut trees and a bunch of strawberries. I've pretty much maxed out the small tree capacity of the backyard w/out making it an actual orchard. 8-/ So far, I've only seen sure signs of life in the hazelnut and strawberries. Fingers crossed for the rest - wish me luck! I'm still deciding on the traditional summer veggies, but I do have a couple of cool season plants already in pots - a little lettuce and some garlic that had sprouted on the kitchen counter. How much space do you till? My garden tends to be tucked into Earthboxes next to the driveway, or small beds scattered about rather than one large planting. later! horkan On Tue, Mar 11, 2014 at 03:46:00PM -0400, Allen Beddingfield wrote: > So, how many gardeners do we have on here?
