That sounds extremely familiar; I did not inherit the family green thumb!

I have five raised garden beds in our backyard, surrounded by 6 foot high fencing to protect the plants from the deer but it's still too cold to plant outside. I do have my plants started under grow lights indoors though.

Jaciqltznok,
Your gardens look great...I have a question for ya. I once read that sunflowers will attract fireflys. Do you find that this is true? I love fireflys and have wanted to attract them to my home so that I can introduce my grandkids to them. Have you noticed fireflys in your gardens with the sunflowers in them? Can hardly wait for your reply. Oh, just had a thought, if there are any pesticides in use , you may not see any.

No I don't plant a vegetable garden. We have a very short growing season and it would be eaten by the deer. I don't want to work that hard for deer food.

We have one every year, but it's still too cold to plant for this year.

I have a small garden. Grow all the plants from seed inside the house. Mostly canteloupe, cucumbers, tomatoes, and pumpkins with a few peppers. Decide this year to downsize. Not enough time to garden, quilt, play golf, Bible studies, and sometimes I think I need to cook!

I only grow organic, and the Sunflowers act as a natural pesticide...they give the bad bugs something to eat other than my garden! :D

As for fireflies, we rarely see any around here...I am in town and live in a farm area that LOVES their chemicals....but I will keep a closer eye out this year...I know they attract TONS of bees! (but only in the day time)
