He got several type of garlic growing. Both Murphy and I like garlic. I honestly don't know what size is reasonable for us in gardening. The one we had past was much to large. I've always liked garden in box, although hubby wasn't a fan of them. If I had my way completely and I know that isn't going to be happening any time in near of far future. I would divided garden into thirds, and plant the very back into trees, since we have raspberry bushes there. 5 fruit tree could nicely fit. The mid part for berries, and upper part for vegetables.
My son made his strawberry growing area out of old milk crates. I'm pretty impress with them.
We went over to Ashland earlier today. Got some family photo in there park. Even people walking though the park Got some family photo, of my oldest. I would like to get a family photo in next three years of complete family and grandchildren. It hard to get everyone together.
Been active there, sort of revamp my routine. But I believe I'm doing the same. Usual on odd days I'm walking and even days I'm exercising. So I cut my exercise routine down in half and get quite a few steps in, down here in Oregon
Sounds like you’re having a great trip
ReplyDeleteGardening can be rewarding.
ReplyDeleteI like the strawberries in milk crates idea, I will tell my daughter about that.
ReplyDeletestrawberry crates are a brilliant idea, I would like to try that. I love gardening - even if you just do one raised bed (box) it would be rewarding - we put lettuce and things in small pots on trays on the garden table and cut and eat for salad during the summer :)
ReplyDeleteIt can be very hard to get the whole family together for photos. Sometimes you have to plan a lot. It sounds like you are enjoying your time.
ReplyDeleteI've tried indoor grow-light hydroponics for veggies, and container gardening, and box gardens. This spring it's box gardens and a new technique called "wicking container" gardening. (Look up Wicking Container Gardening with Leon").

My wicking tomatoes are doing WAAY better than my box garden tomatoes. And only need to water once a week in summer.
Your son sounds like a great gardener.
ReplyDeleteThat's a brilliant way to grow strawberries. I might mimic that. He's got the turnable composter, that's nice too.
ReplyDeleteThe strawberry growing area looks so cool!
ReplyDeleteSounds like an expert!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter
That's very clever with the strawberries!
ReplyDeleteYour son is quite industrious. Sounds like you're having a nice trip.
ReplyDeleteThose are milk crates? Clever idea - we don´t have anything like that. I mean... like really, you cannot buy that here.
ReplyDeleteI love to sit in a nice yard (garden) but I have no green thumb and hate to work in the garden ! Am I happy to have moved and live on the 3rd floor looking down on the gardeners keeping the lawn ans shrubs to perfection !
