For me:

• Tomatillos from seed that I saved
• San Marzano tomatoes
• A couple Pomegranate trees (supposedly they do well in the heat)
• Oak tree from seeds I saved (they've been in the fridge)
• Flameleaf Sumac from seeds I saved
• Prime Ark 45 blackberry from propagation
• Bluecrisp blueberry from propagation
• Cantaloupe
• Watermelon
• Blue Hopi corn from saved seed
• Sorghum-Sudangrass as a cover crop

Apparently tomatoes will grow back after a freeze if you don't uproot them. That is all.

If you have any recently discovered gardening tips post them here.

1. A row of trellised corn makes for a decent wind block.
2. Many things go to seed early when the temps get to 100+
3. Apparently Hornworms can have 2 generations a year.
4. Bees like sweat.

Has anyone tried growing A Bay Leaf plant as a bush? I'd like something about 4' / 1.2m tall. I'm in the south of the UK. The location won't get direct sunshine for much of the day and very little at all in the late autumn, winter.

For me: nigella, calendula, forgetmenots, mallow, columbine, and also chamomile and dill. Which ones will you come up where they want to?

The heat index has been over 110F here in Texas. Obviously it gets hot in summer, but this is a bit earlier than usual.

Leave a comment if you know of any heat tolerant vegetables and cover crops that still grow and produce during excessive heat.

Vegetables:

1. Okra (Crimson Spineless and Heavy Hitter)
2. Eggplant
3. Pepper
4. Lettuce of unknown variety under a shade cloth.
5. Tomatillo
6. Watermelon (Black Diamond)
7. Butternut Squash
8. Recently planted Saturn Peach tree is doing ok if I water every other day.

Cover crops:

Sorghum-Sudangrass (I'm using this to cover the ground, produce biomass and to assist with compaction).

Miscellaneous notes:

Lettuce under shade cloth is somehow growing, I figured it would have died by now.

My tomatoes are producing albiet slower than before.

Cucumber seems to have stopped growing.

Jardelle Pumpkin transplants are doing ok with afternoon shade.

2nd planting of Corn tasselled way too early.

Greeting from Argentina, here's our first chayote

So basically I would like to buy some wasabi seeds, but I don't know of any web sites that dedicates to selling seeds which can be trusted, so any recommendation is good, thanks!

...if a land owner died without a will, that land would be divided up among the owner’s heirs. Once they passed on, the land would be further divided among their heirs. While property might be in a single family’s control for generations, they don’t have legal title or claim to the land. That means they cannot easily sell the land or consolidate fractured acreages.

This makes me happy! :)

There are a few houses in my city that have gone all in on this and it's absolutely beautiful! We've started a big project at my house to do something similar as well. It's very exciting!

It's an interesting discussion here. I also think, for those who think it's unfair that conventional to organic farmers need three years to allow the soil to recover but hydroponic farmers dont need to worry about this...are hydroponic farmers required to study the effect of the water they use in their system? Where they source it, how they dispose of it?

This is apparently only a trailer (for what I am not sure, he just mentioned a book in the works), but it plus my plethora of tomato seedling plants makes me think of how important community is in growing food.

He got neighbors to give him space to produce their yard into a garden for them both, as well as finding food sources and installing them for the community.

Would love to do this but when you have debts and responsibilities, it's hard to manage alone.

This is a lovely read about something that is likely quite unlike your quotidian struggles.

I've read a decent amount about iris cultivation, but I have to admit hyacinths have the edge where scent's concerned.
