    taters, sweetcorn (whats left after the deers, crows and squirrels), ass of peppers (all shapes and sizes), squash, zucchini, ass of okras, maters (cherry as well as several heirloom varieties), pole beans, melons, and all sorts of herbs. Also have a few rows of clearfields (thanks southern duck for the left overs last year) and bennie. Man the doves get thick back there in the fall.

    I am losing veggies nightly to the damn neighborhood sookie patrol. They will eat any damn thing! fuggin goats. Get my black dog back from school tomorrow, she'll put and end to that. She too hates a damn deer. if not, well be serving fresh loin with the veggies directly!

    The least I've planted in about 15 years. Mostly maters and herbs, they cost money, and you cannot beat them fresh. I planted a couple other things for the kids.

    Urban kinda garden, I miss my big old back yard.

    Those squash and cukes were really small starters when they were planted. Everything was planted really early, dont remember the exact date. Somewhere around my birthday, the 6th of April. There was still a chance of frost and wet as hell. The beds saved everything from drowning out.

    Trellis is the way to go with Cukes. They get good and straight and don't get the white on the bottom from the ground.

    My dad got hooked up with the company that makes those stakes. They are round and treated. He sells them on the side. Glad I didn't have to cut bamboo this year. He rigged up the stakes and string for the tomatoes. That's how a lot of these big vegetable farmers do it.

    I don't believe so. Find anything I will let you know.

    Yeah dad started at it last night. He needs to get all that crap out of there so I can get some room for more peppers and okra.

    Have y'all planted many Marion maters? I normally just stick with better boys and big boys with a few sweet 100's in there. A buddy of mine grows Cherokees and gets a few other heirlooms so I don't waste my time with limited space.

    Try a Sun Sugar if you can find them. They are about cherry tomato size but are orange. One plant will put off more than you can handle.

    I am not a huge tomato person but I can eat them like grapes. Sweet as hell.

    I had one but it didn't make it for some reason. Got to find another.

    I try to plant 3 sweeter cherry maters every year, they're for me. So far I've stuck with the sweet 100, but I'll give those a try. I eat them when I'm outside working. I normally don't sucker them completely either so I get a ton of really small ones. I'm just a huge mater fan. There's a hot house in St Stephens that a buddy of mine pulls some out of, and they're about the only ones I eat out of our season. It just doesn't seem right eating maters at any other times of the year.

    Most of those are Marions in that box, they were planted at the same time as the others. I didn't know if it was a stumpier plant, just kinda winged it.

    Anybody got PM on their squash and zucs? I had some coming on mine when we had all that rain about two weeks ago. Used some baking soda/water spray to knock it down and it about killed my plants, but their starting to come back now.

    Marion's are my personal favorite.

    I also like the "tumbler" varities for the cherry tomatoes.

    I have some mortgage lifters and better boys this year, too. I will take a pic. Garden coming along nicely...
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    My first "all me" gardens at the lake. I started this section 15 years ago, but it hasn't had anything planted in it in over five years. Anybody need some oregano? Chives?

    That boat in the background looks like, in the proper hands, it could be a fish catching machine.
