2025 Garden!

It’s growing so good I can’t keep up lol

In about early June when I’m done bear hunting will plant tomatoes, beans, peas, lettuce and carrots. Less potatoes and way more tomatoes this year and beans. Home made pasta sauce is where it’s at I don’t think I’ll ever be able to buy pasta sauce again. Last fall we planted 20 or so raspberry canes so we will see how they make out and hopefully can get some raspberries this summer

I relocated all my raspberry and blackberry plants last spring. I babied them all summer. Then we bought a bunch of cattle panels and fenced them off from the deer. This summer I should have fruit again. We have planted 5 fruit trees since we moved here. 2 have survived. Won't plant anymore. Too costly have to fence them off from the deer too. I have all my old dog kennel panels up around everything in the yard to keep the deer out.
It sure doesn't look like gardening anytime soon. Warmed up to 42 yesterday and had water moving all over. Snow went down but it's 17* so far this morning. Cost way to much to heat greenhouse around the clock with propane heaters.
The local Amish have great plants they are selling now. That is where I bought those monster tomato plants will buy all my plants there this spring.
Have to have tomato, pepper and cucumber plants inside too much wind here it beats the plants to death. Onions, carrots and green beans and corn I grow outside. Sometimes I can get the cucumbers to grow outside. The new big greenhouse I grew gherkins in last year and those crazy plants just kept producing until I got tired of them. Only thing I can't seem to grow and get to ripen fully is acorn squash. I tried to grow in the new greenhouse even tried to pollenate by hand got one squash. Easier to buy from a guy who comes in with a trailer load of veggies and fruit in the late summer. Won't plant spuds anymore either. They use too much water and I have to use well water for everything. I sure miss my old place with its unlimited spring water.

The frame for the new greenhouse. We used the frame from those cloth type carports then put the wood up. Use polycarbonate panels that are sun rot resistant. We've built 4 houses with the polycarbonate panels there was one old greenhouse on the place then bought a real nice greenhouse from the Amish. I'm going to have to plant flowers outside the door and maybe inside to get pollinators inside to pollinate some of the plants.

Heck I had deer walk into that greenhouse last year walk clear to the back and try to eat a couple of tomatoes. They stepped over a panel I had made to keep the bunnies out. I had to make a panel out of the cattle panels to keep them out. At least it isn't elk!
