Garden

[Armed Eye Doc]

We are trying some above ground gardening this year.  It is a little bit late for Texas.  I built all of the boxes from stuff I had leftover from the build.  I bought some garden soil and shoveled it into the boxes.  Damn I need a tractor! 🚜

The left box will be potatoes.  The lower right trough is onions.

I have these labeled.  There is also a jalapeño plant in the back.

So your growing onions in the feed trough. What do the cattle think about that?

As long as they get cubes, they don't care.

That's great to see Doc. The old lady and I keep talking about starting a garden at the West Virginia house. Just haven't got around to it yet. Maybe next season.

Those metal raised beds are so nice, less bending over and keeps some of the critters out, I’ve got one and going to start transitioning to more

I’ve had mine planted about a month now it got really hot and humid with some rain the past two weeks and everything took off! 

Black raised bed has sweet and hot peppers with onions planted in the gaps

black barrels are something new, I saw a way to plant potatoes I wanted to give a try so far only one has come up 

then there’s my tomatoes garden with some green beans
