I love growing veggie's, got huge selection of seeds: veggies and weed (seedolic). You got anything else on the go? I helped build a pumkin chucker(uses compressed air) we have huge pumkinfest in my area every year(not this year:() and launch them like cannon balls. I'm into peppers now and want to get some exotic fruit trees going next year, they seem like alot fun to try and keep alive in are winters. Alot of herbs& spice are must with any outside weed grow, help protect the plants and great for your baked pototoes.

Hey Folks found these useful in my outdoor backyard grow I wanted to be frugal since I was letting mother nature do her thing with outside as I do my thing inside the shed grow tent..... k that didn't sound too odd???... Anyways...turn's out this stuff is not bad as a mixed grow medium, I have had no issues with growth or health and thats just leaving the plants be with watering from just nature, I usually don't do this type of slacker type grow but I figured pff why not... These can be sourced at most Canadian local grocery stores. :)

Hey @Mustang92 ,

only the pumpkin sharing digs with the girls this year, had plans for much more but got busy and then it was too late to bother. Fingers crossed, I will have the greenhouse up late fall and then next year I will run a number of different herbs and veggies with the 4 girls.

Any pumpkin, or other vines, will get separate digs “outside“ the greenhouse where they can’t abuse my girls .

You could probably use some Dolomite lime with that blend, although our plants do like slight acidity.

Depends where you are. Here in Southern Ontario we have a bit of a longer growing season than most of the country. I could start a plant outdoors in late May, and grow her to maturity. I actually have a volunteer from last year's outdoor plant in my garden. Seed fell off, got buried by the freeze/thaw cycles and popped up. I'll be taking a new pic later today as she's shifting to flower, but I put an older one in below. She's not as tall as she would get if I started her indoors, but she's closing in on 6 feet. I think she survived because her mother was an indica heirloom/landrace strain (if you believe the breeder, she did match some descriptions of Indian landraces).

Noon here in the valley, 19 feels like 20, coolest it’s been by about 10 degrees, in over 2 months.

Been a great vegging summer here, hot & high humidity but dry so hauled a LOT of water

Same here. Tomatoes did better than last year, but they really needed more rain. I'm hoping it stays on the dry side for the next couple of months though. The Blue Cheese and Bakerstreet are supposed to be mould and fungus resistant, and I've got the potassium bicarbonate, but I'd rather not push my luck.
