re: 2024 Spring Garden Thread
Posted by bluemoons on 4/25/24 at 10:25 pm
I keep my indeterminates to 2-3 main vines starting 1-2’ up. Prune all the rest of the suckers. The exception here would be the cherries. I just kinda prune them for airflow.

I did my first real pruning on my plants today. Cleaned up ...

Here are some current photos. I need to side dress this weekend. Knock on wood, but no pest problems yet. Everything is looking good. I don't have any plans this weekend during the days, so I'm going to try to side dress and prune the tomatoes some. My cherry tomatoes are overwhelming the Florida we...

I had all day events both days this weekend so I didn't spend too much time fooling with my garden. Things are looking good though. I've got a few cherry tomatoes starting to turn and my squash plants are starting to flower - just female flowers though. Need some male flowers so they can pollinate.

A lot of that depends on your growing medium, but that’s a lot of water. I may water my plants every 2-3 days right now in the absence of rain. I don’t even have my irrigation turned on yet. Overwatering makes it really difficult for the plants to pick up nutrients and it effectively suffocates the ...

I put bone meal, epsom salt, calcium nitrate, and tomato tone in the planting hole. I also amended with worm castings right before plant out. ...

Thanks man. Hopefully everything keeps doing well. Just hit everything with some peroxide since we’re starting to dry out. I planted out on March 12. Started pepper seeds January 3. Tomatoes January 16. I direct sowed all the cucumbers, squash, zucchini, and melons around March 20. ...

Sorry to hear that buddy. That makes for a stressful day. We got absolutely dumped on here in Covington, but thankfully no tornadoes. I heard Slidell got it pretty bad but honestly I was so busy at work today I didn’t really have time to read about what went on over there.
My garden made it out ...
