Shed and fence (Should I paint the fence)
Comments (176)Hydrangeas are on my mind this year too (never tried them yet), but I really clicked on this link because of "should I paint the fence". I looked at the pictures and also craved a little more contrast between the saturated shed colors and the grey fence and would have suggested a wash (watery paint with no primer, or stain) in charcoal black. Still weathered looking and not to keep up with slickly painting every year, but nicer contrast against the bright colors. - Maybe I have to take my own advice for the worn out grey fence in my own newly purchased backyard!!...See MoreEdibles in April
Comments (53)@mousemaker, nice to hear from a fellow Wisconsinite who understands and feels my pain. Tulips here are just breaking through, nothing blooming. Ornamental pears are ready to bud open if mother nature ever cooperates. Where is that damn groundhog, I'd like to give him a piece of my mind!!!...See MoreOLLD 5/26
Comments (117)Jayme – I remember shoveling snow, but I don’t think it was an exceptionally bad winter. I didn’t think we really had much of a spring, with mild weather, but others disagree with my definition of “mild” (LOL). One night last week there was a frost warning, and it was 49 deg. Saturday morning, but in the 70s today. Eztia – Years ago, as the youngest one in the household, I was the one to grate the horseradish root for Passover!! I remember sitting there & the tears just running down my face .. who knew from “hazmat”! but it’s really not as hot or hot the same way as a pepper is .. I don’t think. Good for the sinuses!!...See MoreWant to start a garden? Ask your questions!
Comments (137)I had a garden for years but not the last two, due to low plant production. I believe my soil was the issue. Well now the “garden” is a bunch of weeds... so I do not want to plant there unless I put down some sort of barrier (Im going with a raised bed garden so I can more easily control soil quality). I want everything to be organic and heard landscaping fabric is not. I know some gardeners use food grade plastic but I haven’t found any in small quantities and it seems to cost over $50 - not every budget friendly! My questions are: 1) how deep should my bed be (typically grow peppers, cud’s, zucchini, beans and tomatoes) - easiest build is 10.5 inches but heard I should go with 12”? suggestions on what to put under my bed if building over previous garden? another option I heard of is to place raised bed over existing grass which will break down and be beneficial. Do you agree? Just afraid of getting lots of weeds again! Thanks for your help!...See Moremandolls
