Thank you! Hopefully, I've laid a good foundation for many years of great gardening.

I can't speak for Denmark, but here in the US, one can buy tinned and jarred "Sweety Drops," or "Sweety Pepps." You can Google ingredients and find a recipe that works. I've used a family "sweet & sour" recipe originally intended for pickling cucumbers and chow chow successfully.

The only thing I found to work on stink bugs was to smash the f*ckers, then flush 'em. My husband used to just flush them, but, somehow, they always floated back up. They would never crawl up the sides of the toilet bowl and it would just creep me out when I lifted the lid to use it and they'd...

Looking good to me!

  Just curious which are the Mad Hatters?  Mine are really stretching.  :scared:

Okay, so I was at an Herb Fair a few weeks back and there was a vendor selling specialty olive oils and vinegars. The Meyer Lemon extra virgin olive oil caught my eye and I picked up a small bottle of it. Today's lunch is baby greens, including arugula and lettuce from the garden, along with...

  Using 10-foot lengths of Sched 40 on a structure about 30" wide would give you around 36" height.  Obviously, the bigger you get, the more structure you'll need.  If you wanted more height, you could do this:  Take a 5' length of Sched 40, stick a tee on it, use the "top" of the tee as your...

  Thanks!  And, I'll give that right-clicky thing a try.   EDIT:  Cool!  It worked!

:bday:  Have a FABULOUS year!   :cheers:

Looks like it's been a month since a video tour, so here it is! If anyone can help me with how to insert a "screenshot" of the video as a link placeholder, I'd certainly appreciate it!   May in Harrisburg had more days of rain than any month on record.  June has brought over 7" of rain, so...

Here are a couple of photos of the pretty much completed garden. First, the borage at the entrance. The bees are loving it. The black aphids, too, so it's been getting a Neem bath along with everything else when I spray for whiteflies. Which is proving easier said than done this year, as it...

How right you are!

I must say, your photos are simply gorgeous!

  That's exactly it.  I have a diffuser I use on my gas range inside.  I tried and it wouldn't work as well on the side burner.

  You might actually have something here.  They were supposed to order the parts to make it run on natural gas,  Maybe they did just drill it out.  The grill itself runs really hot, which I like, but it has the control I want, too.  It will heat up to 6-700 degrees in like 10 minutes.  I just...

  You're in luck!  I found some photos from my 2016 garden.  Let me preface this by saying my husband helped build these.  He built and raced cars for a living, so everything gets a bit over-engineered, if you get my drift.  This could be done way simpler, but it worked, and worked well for at...
