My Garden with Earthboxes

Nov 7, 2009 - Central Florida. Here's my little garden which includes a few potted herbs, radishes and strawberries along with 5 earthboxes that I have going now. 4 of the earthboxes have tomatoes and 1 was just planted yesterday with strawberries. Our weather has been very hot up until recently so the tomatoes were slowing down. Then the hornworms got to them and took their toll but now the tomatoes seem to be doing very well. I'm hoping I get several to ripen here soon. The couple of tomatoes I have had were very delicious. The herbs are basil, mint, cilantro and rosemary. Some of these things are the first time I have ever planted them so I am learning. I bought most of my earthboxes from http://www.earthbox.com . So in addition to relaxing music that I create, gardening is one of my favorite things. (http://www.donshetterly.com)

I love the earthbox. I've used them many times now and just keep them going as long as the weather permits. In fact, I'm getting ready to plant again today.

Love your container gardening. It's so funny seeing tomatoes this time of year!

I'm hoping we don't hit freezing weather all of the sudden or I'm going to have to keep my plants very warm.

Cool but you know you can hand pick the worms and toss them in a soapy bucket no need to spray you might be killing a friend with that stuff ...Peace
