In our large garden we will plant: Corn, tomatos, onions, cucumbers, beans, radishes, peppers, cabbage, brocolli, pumpkins and cantalopes. In our smaller garden will be a garden full of potatos. We always plant different kinds of each vegetable. We will plant about 20 tomato plants. I will make spaghetti sauce, salsa, stewed tomatos and possibly tomato juice.

i have always wanted to plant corn and tomatoes. That is the two staples I eat more than anything. it would please me to see myself make something out of a seed and feed my family with it. I think the meal would mean that much more to me. Good luck on your planting.

i'll tell you what when I lived in NM. I tried to plant tomatoes and they just burned up and then I tried here in the panhandle of TX. and have had great success I have people frome 30 miles away waiting for my tomatoes and then in the fall right before winter I have a list of people that want my green tomatoes.
Corn is not so easy even though you would think so, (plant it and it will grow) you have to go out ( if you only have a few plants ) and beat the stalks with a broom or with your hand to get the pollen down into it, but if it never gives you anything to eat you do get something to plant the next year - just mark the bag with the date of when you put it into it.

I live in Ny now. I can't plant anything but a pot of dirt.


myLot reputation of 84/100. heidibur (198)   ranked 590 out of 1,674 in gardening  4 years ago

If you put in a raised bed you can plant just abot anything in NY.
All your herbs and even tomatoes.
It doesn't have to be big, just ask the local nursery about raised beds and if they dont know just ask me, a garding really doent need a deep soil it just needs love and care. it will grow.

We will be growing tomatoes, onions, basil, lavendar, jalepenos, cilantro, zuccini and some other random things. I love to grow food in my garden. To do my shopping from my own front yard. I get so much enjoyment form it I wonder why more people dont do it. I guess not everyone is amazed by it like me.


myLot reputation of 84/100. heidibur (198)   ranked 590 out of 1,674 in gardening  4 years ago

It still amazes me and I watch it from seed to feed.
I cant get enough.
I love planting and watching it grow and then bringing it in and cleaning it to put in the pan.

We are still discussing if we will bother with a garden this year. I want to have a small one, but my husband doesnt' believe in small. My health, our health, isnt' going to allow us to work like we use to in the dirt. So we may just have a few tomato plants, peppers, onions, maybe some peas or beans. BUt I will cut back big time.
Then again, we may offer the area to someone in exchange for some goodies they grow.
I'm just not sure yet!

I plant basically flowers, such as Petunia,Vinca, and Marigold. I always wanted a vegetable garden just never got around to it. I would like to plant some herbs this year. I already have oregano, and rosemary. I like Thyme so that is my first choice. If decide to plant anything, it's going to be peppers and tomatoes.

We'll plant tomatoes and jalapenos, which we've already started indoors (We live in Michigan).

We'll also do cucumbers, onions, raddishes, carrots.
Maybe corn.

And we'll have quite a bit of flowers as well. . .geraniums, marigolds. . .also already started indoors.

And a few sunflowers.

I usually stick with flowers. They don't require much extra care and I can only use my front yard since my dog pulls up everything new I plant. If it's not new he just digs in it to bury his bones. I usually do plant tomatoes, so will look for a spol to put them on the side of the fence that the dog can't get to.

I wish I´ve more luck with my tomatoes.I always give them water and lots of sunshine,and the only things that happened,is that they die for me.
This year I shall try some other easy plants


myLot reputation of 84/100. heidibur (198)   ranked 590 out of 1,674 in gardening  4 years ago

when I lived in NM. I tried every year to grow them and killed them every time I thought I had a black thumb until we moved to TX. now they just grow like crazy.

We have a ton of various flower garden areas (thanks to the previous owners who kept meticulous gardens) but they had no vegetable gardens. Since I just had back surgery I'm not going to do a veggie garden this year, but I did win this huge gardening basket and within it is a starter tomato plant (I think you grow it inside or outside) and will try that. We definitely have the space for a veggie garden whether small to large so maybe (when I get my little rototiller) I'll try one veggie type this year. From your experience, are tomatoes the easiest to grow? In fact, I'll look that up online today too, you inspired me to not just grow perennial flowers, but some veggies even if it's a small area. I'm thinking you have to fence it in a little (to keep out animals?) to, things like that. I'm a fast learner, just never grew that type of garden before.


myLot reputation of 84/100. heidibur (198)   ranked 590 out of 1,674 in gardening  4 years ago

I dont fence them in and I have a small area under my front window my tomatos take over my front walk and go onto my grass so we have to mow around them. but we dont cage them and we have them on the east side of the house so they only get morning sun alot of people here where I live put them on the west side of the house and they end up with them burning and splitting.
