Buff Gardeners
This group is intended for those who enjoy the natural aspect of gardening, and don't feel the need to cover their natural state while tending their plants. This group may be used to exchange ideas, and success stories, and of course...recipes, that have been brought fourth from the earth.

Got my small vegetable garden planted this week
Return to DiscussionsI finally harvested my potatoes, carrots, onions and shallots. I was a bit late, delayed by too much time in the sun and helping put on an am-dram play. I still managed to get to most of them before the creapy crawlies* made holes in them. I put up pics of some of the crop. It was also a good year for cucumbers, tomatoes and chillie peppers.
* by the way does anyone know what this is: It is like a centepede or a wire worm with legs all the way down each side. It's about an inch long and mid-brown in colour. The odd thing is it has a head at each end. Quite often the two ends set off in opposite directions untill the tension in the middle makes one end give way. It likes potatoes, making tiny holes in them.
