2009 Garden Vlog 5, Total Garden Overview

Kinda long but I DO cover a LOT of territory with this video. And BTW if you're wondering why I'll be moving the big pile of partially decomposed wood chips to my lower garden eventually, it's because I'll mostly be moving my entire garden down there next season because the soil is MUCH better there.

It's kinda odd. I've previously been uploading 720 x 480 WMV files and they've been filling the screen. This time I upped a 720 x 480 MP4 file and it didn't fill the screen.
GRRRR

did ever try planting asian long yard beans ? pls do if so we will see how u grow theme ,thanks alot !!! ur video are great !!

[Blinkazoid]

I guess I"m not too adventurous with my plantings. I long ago decided what I liked best and mostly stick to that. White Half Runner beans is the only kind I plant. I will be planting some watermellon and cantalope next summer which is fairly new for me. I did plant watermellon and cantalope for the first time in ages last summer but they didn't turn out so good because I didn't give them enough space.

Hales Best I did and it did great. I think out of two mounds of plants I wound up getting 14 good eaters. Very sweet. Good luck, great video.

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks!!! I'd be very happy with 14. Especially since my cucumbers are starting to encroach on my cantaloupe, and watermellow too. It's probably the most vigorous growth I've ever had with cucumbers and that's saying a lot!

I have had a disaster with my tomatoes, due to neglect / not being home to care and nurture them / forgetting them in a hot window.. and any other excuse I can think off!! But I will do a update next week..

YOUR garden's looking good, long may it prosper... :) :)

[Blinkazoid]

You could always blame it on your wife sending out bad karmic vibrations towards them since she wasn't crazy about them occupying space in the window:)

Things are looking reasonably good here other than my beans which have now seen a total of 5 days partially submerged from so much rain and are turning yellow. I might have to rip them up, wait for dry weather and then ridge up a tall mound of dirt and then replant. Yikes we've had more rain this year than in the last 7 or 8 years.

Wow, I guess that episode cleared out your sinuses:)) Whew, thanks for granting me laughing permission. I had a lot of pressure building up there, LOL. I feel better now. I shall be on guard during pepper harvest time so try and head off any such calamatities.

[crewlla]

dont laugh at me but, I was trying to get the seeds out of a banana pepper and one seed end up getting in to my nose. the pain was killing me the only way I could get the pain to go away was to snort water......... I guess youcan laugh now. Dont try this at home.
