Hello from Canada - July 17th, 2005 at 01:39 AM
I just joined your forum, I got the link for your site on one of my other sites(not gardening sites)
I am single mom of a special needs daughter(6.5)and my son(11.75) part time.
I love my kids and my guinea pigs
We live in Central AB, I am not sure what zone we are in for planting though.
This year in our current garden we have potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, cucumber, watermelon, and pumpkin. Along my south fence we planted peas and morning glorys, and along a small west fence sweet peas and strawberries.
This is the 5th year I have planted the bigger garden, this year I ripped all the quack grass and weeds out of the yard, dug a new garden to be planted next year(however the pumpkin like the extra space and seems to be growing like a weed. I used hay earlier in the year to cover the garden at nite when we had a late frost warning, so I now have little patches of timothy grass in the garden too.
I am not a novice but I am not a master either, but I would like to learn more esp plants for a rock garden, as I am building one from the rocks that were under the dirt, which is clay so I adding some peat moss to it to get a looser soil.
Hope I didn't bore anyone.
