Back safe and sound...we walked! ;)
that is the best way to do it IMO, only when getting hammered though. here you can get a DUI for driving a bike, horse, skateboard ect... while under the influence.

and DST, like LG stated above, your pumpkins should be fine and get fatter still.
dam i forgot i wanted to grow pumpkin to and try to make my own pumpkin pie.

also it looks like the video i have will not make it to RIU, i have tried on 3 different cpu's and it did not work on any of them, its on one of those mini cd disc things.
sorry guys, ill start taking pics more often now that every thing is growing by the day

If your video camera can hook up to a comp via USB and you can copy it to your comp you can do that. If not but you can do video play back and if you have the proper video connections on your comp you could use a program play the video on your camera and record it to your computer.

thanks for the info, i think i have tried almost every thing now, i wish it had a usb, it would be so much easier, i cant even find the plug in the camera to charge it now.

well ive had flowers on my toms for awhile now but yet no toms, i figure it is flower drop due to to much N. so i am gonna flood it when it goes dry to help flush some N out, and then i will add a feed of 0-10-10 for flower

beans
im a big bean fan, i like them snapped, shelled or dried. i usually grow 4 or 5 different kinds. we eat them fresh n the ol lady maked dilly beans that are killer. we also freeze some but not enough to last all winter. maby this yr we will put up more :)


the 1st pic is a chinease long bean, ive never tried them here thus the test spot, the 2nd is scarlet runner beans. they have addapted to here very well n my garden will always have them due to taste n they produce good too. the last pic is rattlesnake pole beans, a very good tasting n producer that will always be in my garden. ive a couple others growing but dont have pics. i usually trial out a couple different beans each yr. ive got some speckled southern butterbeans/limas that im working on getting some seed from. i lost the seed proly 8 yrs ago n found like 15 seed tucked away n went YIPEE!!! they are my all time favorite just didnt know where to find them again. these are from my moms garden originally.

That sucks. I have alot of computer stuff. The only kit that I need is to use hard drives externally but other things I could use to. I wish I new if you can use the external hard drive kits on CD/DVD/Blu-Ray drives.

squash, punkins n such will drop the flower n continue to grow. i pick summer squash at an early stage due to taste n bigger gets meally. winter squash need to grow till the vine dies then cure a week or so before storing.
good job on the walking, hope you slacked your thirst with a great beer :)

early bloom drop is common for toms, you didnt say if you were growing determinate or indeterminast plants. if they are indeterminate keep feeding a balanced fert not a high p/k ratio as they will grow n produce till frost n need the n for veg growth jmo

Same here but I try to keep my own questions and such on my own threads unless what they are doing on here could probably answer my question(s).

Also if you have some thing to add and you can still edit your post please edit your post and add to it to keep the threads clean.

As I was typing my whole room just went dark, I turn around and there is a tropical bloody rainstorm going on (I am listening to music on headphones so didn't hear it - wifeys in bed, hehe).

Hey guys, quick update from rainy Holland. So I forgot to tell you all, I was checking out one of my MJ girls that I have in the greenhouse the other day. I had recently upotted it. Due to the amount of grass we have around here I have tonnes of stuff growing out of the compost I made over the winter (I have to weed my indoor garden at times!!!lol plus grass pollen has been getting into my room as I have a natural gap in the door - it's an outside room btw) Anyway, I digress as usual. So there's this little bit of green foliage sticking out of my pot and I think, "okay, that's getting pulled", but the closer I looked it wasn't the usual grass looking weed, it had more of a ferny leaf shape to it, lots of little leaves basically. So I carefully dug it up and low and behold it was a bloody carrot!!! lmao. I must have thrown it onto the compost quite late and it didn't decompose. Anyway, it's in another pot and getting a chance to grow. Weirdl enough this was a day after my wife had commented on how we were not growing any carrots this year.

And my cauliflower has started growing the head. Nice!!

Happy Saturday veggers,

DST

its always nice to find some surprises.
i got some carrots going they should be done within about 2 weeks, im guessing.
and as were talking about carrots a few months back, i opened my crisper in the fridge to grab a bag of carrots and when i pulled them out the bag was full of white roots coming off of the carrots we bought from the store, i found it very odd and cool. theri is so many things you can buy from the store in the produce section that you can still grow, ive bean meaning to get some Jerusalem Artichoke to plant but i just dot have time, i still havent got to plant my reg artichoke starts yet, waiting for some soil

no. i wanted to but i didnt have my beds made at that time, and it was still a bit to cold outside, i wonder what they would have done since they were already foot long carrots, maybe act like a potato and grow like 10 small carrots off that one. im not sure what it would do, maybe ill leave some in theri to long again and see if they root
