Name Your Crops

Heres my list: Cauliflower, string beans, peas, tom thumb carrots, green peppers, chilli's, white onions, lettuce, and pattypans

Well...Not only is my name not Mary but I can't grow a garden where I live because every year I tried every year I got barely nothing due to the neighbours raiding the garden. They have more money than they need so are not hungry but like the fresh produce. Thought I was smart I told them they could have a corner of ground and plant here for themselves but they declined saying they were too active with the senior centre and church. She even had the nerve to make a stew and brought us a taste and that's all it was. There are three of us here and given barely enough for one person. We just gave up. I go to farmers market now and honestly I can buy there cheaper than I can grow. I am just no longer able to do my own garden anyway. I am curious what is cilantro? I have heard of it but know nothing about it. Thanks.

Let's see. I have Early Girl and Parks Mammoth and Yellow Pear and Celebrity tomatoes. I planted Basil. Big Bertha Bell Peppers, Green Bells and Pimiento Red Bells. I am adding more as I have time and room. Need something a little spicy to make salsa with.

In the past we have had corn, radishes, tomatoes, beans, peas, cucumber, green onion, carrots, bell peppers, watermelon, squash......not sure if there was other things or not....oh yes, cantaloupe.

Ground isn't ready yet, too cold at night, but inside I have romaine lettuce, great lakes lettuce, red bell pepper, giant yellow bell pepper, yellow squash, beans, peas, corn, hollyhocks, morning glory, broccoli and carrots. I think that's all right now. I'm out of peat pots, but I have tomato seeds, zucchini, acorn squash and butternut squash and I think a couple of pumpkin seeds.

It is still cold at night here wo we have to wait till closer to the first of June. But we have two kinds of corn,(one hybrid and one heirloom) bush green beans, pole beans for drying, potatoes, 3 kinds of squash (acorn, hubbard,zucs), pumpkins, tomatoes, carrots, lettuce, bulb onions and green onions, kale, peppers, swiss chard, spinach, broccoli, & sugar pod peas. herbs I grow right now are cilantro, parsley, rosemary (in a pot), basil, tyme, tarragon We also have raspberries, (thornless and regular), thornless blackberries, tayberries, logan berries, olympicberries and strawberries. We have three new grape vines, and three kiwi vines and a number of clumps of rhubarb And 6 new baby fruit trees, 2 apple, 2 Italian prune, 2 pear I hope to get more trees but maybe not this year.

Sounds good. My son and grandson have been busy out back. I know we will have tomatoes, green pepper, onion, corn, carrots, radishes, korabi, swiss chard, rasberries, cucs, pumpkins. I don't know what other things he has planted. I am so looking forward to picking, cooking and eating some fresh vegies, thats the best.

Wow, seems that you could harvest so many varieties of crops all the year round. I live in a tropical country where the weather here is almost the same year in or year out. The average temperature here is 32 degree C averagely during daytime. Due to the climate here I mostly plant sweet potatoes, yams, tapioca, onions, sweet corns, red peppers, long beans, lady fingers, cucumbers, spinach and some other leafy vegetables. All these are crops which are easy to plant and take care of. I love broccoli and carrots as well as tomatoes very much. But it’s rather sad that I could hardly get any harvest even I had tried hard to plant them before. Lol so I could get them from the market only. Happy posting Grandpa Bob.

WE have a very small garden since we live on a 1/4 acre. We planted three tomato plants, leaf lettuce and alot of green onions though.

We are planting some plants in our little backyard. We had tomato,pepper,garlic and onions. I water them every early morning. It's refreshing to watch them grow.

Because I live in a small situation I am using planters this year. I am going to have cherry and pear tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and some ornamental lettuce. I will also plant basil, rosemary, lavender and would like to try some cantaloupe. Am waiting until mid May to plant. Have you seen those purple string beans? They are cool. I try to plant some different varieties of things too.

Well, here it is zuchinni, cucumbers two kinds, green beans, peas, radishes,red onions,white onions,strawberrys,cantaloupe and all kinds of squash butter nut and winter and more. LOL I'm hoping to give some away if they all make it. You have a nice day

I didn't get the garden tilled up - long story - so making due with what I have. Took 6 - 5 gallon buckets and putting tomatoes in those then have some deep planter boxes for peas and carrots - figure they can be planted together. I have some nice size flower pots that I'm putting peppers in. That's about it. I'll sure miss potatoes this year but at least I can still make my salsa.

We usually do sweet corn, tomatoes, green peppers, jalepeno, zuchini, cucumbers, and herbs.... this year we are going to do our gardening differently...spread out throughout the yard and in pots vs the ground so they will be angled nicely with the sun at certain times.... and we wont be doing the sweet corn this year since we dont really have the yard to do them... and by time they are ready the local wildlife help themselves to it overnight before we can get to it!!! I know for sure we will be doing green peppers, tomatoes, and jalepenos... as for others....we will have to wait to see when it comes time for us to go to our local farm market and choose... happy gardening!!

wow thats quite a list Grandpa Bob! This yr we have Lavendar Eucalyptus rosemary Oregano cayenne peppers sweet bell peppers lettuce cukes tomatos (big boys and cherry) snap peas corn blueberries watermelon and thats all I can think of at the moment..

Tomatoes Green Peppers,and a Cabbage plant. Thats all.

Sadly, we're not growing any vegetables. We have a beautiful orange tree which gives hundreds of fruit every year - and a lime tree which does the same. I've had a cold for the past few days and my son makes gorgeous hot lime drinks with the limes, which make me feel much better.
