I have tried to plant some tomatoes and peppers here before. Some type of fungus got to them and killed them all :'( I may try again, but by putting in a bit more research on pesticides and such.

Depending on what part of the country you are in, will definitely help decide what to grow. As for me, I live in the desert southwest so planting is definitely something that I am limited to!! But, when I lived in the east, well there you could plant almost anything!!!

You can't go wrong with tomatoes. Yum!

:wave:I live on the Central Coast California and were having spring like weather... I just planted a bunch of wild-flower seeds also Sunflowers (one of my favorite), last years they got-up over 6ft. high... I grow in several wheelbarrows because goffers get to them in the ground... I don't kill anything (not even bugs if I can help it)... I also plant potatoes & tomatoes in pots... I really enjoy gardening. :peace:

That is nice, we live in here in the middle and it feels like its winter forever, can`t for spring so that I can plant vegetables and flower and grass.

I planted my garden this weekend. I have 3 kinds of squash, green beans, tomatoes and cucumbers.
-

I love having a garden in the summer! We will plant peas, beans, various kinds of peppers, tomatoes, and herbs. Last year and the year before, we had a problem with some sort of fungus ruining some of our tomatoes--it wasn't as bad this past year, though. However, the 100+ degree temperatures ruined many of our other plants. My basil, however, did very well, so I am demanding that my boyfriend plant more herbs for me this year. I use them a lot in cooking. He didn't want to waste the space in his garden last year. I have started some herbs inside this year in a small planter I bought at Dollar General. We will see how they do!

My husband and i love to grow a small vegatable garden so we can enjoy the fresh veggies
-
We plant lettuce, green peppers and tomatoes. I might try watermelon this year but i dont have room for them to spread out.

This will be my first year trying to garden. I need to get some fencing to put up to keep the critters out and some good soil to fill in the garden bed I built last summer. I got several vegetable seeds from my brother and his wife for Christmas - peppers, tomatoes, etc - so I'll try those. I'll be getting some other seeds and bushes so I can have fruit as well (looking to get raspberry and blackberry bushes and some strawberries and maybe rhubarb). Pretty ambitious, but we'll see how it goes. Hopefully will have more rain this year than last year!
-
I do not like fooling in the dirt, but I need something in the front of my house. I used to do herbs in pots, which was always nice. I might do that again.
-
I started planting my garden with lettuce and peppers. Last year we had pretty luck on our peppers that ended up giving away to neighbors.

Yep, I too have started my gardening. Planting indoors so when the weather finally changes over they can go outside. I did really well with peppers and tomatoes last year and I too gave most of them away. I do so enjoy gardening. Last year I experimented with doing a lot of gardening out of pots and was very successful.

I need to look up planting gourds - my mom is always talking about gourds and how they saw a lot of gourds in Georgia when they went to visit her grandmother. It would be a nice surprise for her. Also she has some kind of flower seeds that I think I'll plant for her at her house.

:wave: I'm not really sure what your asking but I think your referring to bugs and what keeps my plants from dying... Tell ya the truth, I don't mind removing the bugs and/or just flicking the off. .. Don't know what to tell ya besides keeping them watered (alot)... I don't grow vegetables to eat (only for the greenery) and I love when my flowers bloom. :thumbsup:

I can't wait to start planting things outside. It makes me feel so good to watch things grow. Some plants are better than the others but if you plant them they will grow. I had some vegetables in my garden last year and the whole family loved it. I will definitely do it this year again. I love my roses too.
-

And a host of flowers.

The absolute worst part of living in an apartment building is... having no lawn! I want so badly to have a vegetable garden or at least a few spring posies! But living a building that shares a lawn with several other families means I can't be digging it up, even to put flowers in! My solution: To have a little window box! This spring I'm going to plant a little box of daises, my all-time favorite flower, on the window sill in my living room. I think it will be just enough to keep me sane while living here. :)

Keep it a secret! When the snow is gone...while walking thru the trials I spread some wild flower seeds...and then I go back a month later and see the progress.

i live in a second-floor condo w/ a deck, so nothing elaborate. but definitely a bunch of herbs for cooking, plants that the cat likes to eat (he's especially fond of lemongrass leaves), perilla (also known as shiso), lemon verbena, and some vegetables.
