Re: Coconut cutting time
How are you composting your palm material?
I started a mini-pile of fronds (not coconuts) from some of the misc. palms in my yard. Seems to take forever to breakdown. Any tips/tricks?

Re: Making Compost on the Cheap?
Just buy a new, or use an old, plastic garbage can with a lid. Much cheaper.
You can drill holes in it if you want. I haven't drilled mine and it is doing fine. I take a shovel or a stake and...

Re: What did you plant today (other plants)?
This is my first try at Sweet Potato so I'm not sure what to expect. I'm hoping I'm not planting to early or late for South Florida. I ordered these so long ago that I had just about forgotten...

Re: Equation needed please...

Re: New Pup?

Re: Removing Pups?
I've got an Ice Cream banana that has two pups on it right now and it's still growing like a freight train. +/- 6' tall to the point where the leaves are coming out and that's less than a year's...

Re: 2009 veggie garden

Re: 2009 veggie garden
That's pretty much how I started mine.
But, 2 CY of topsoil is not going to come close to filling in a 10 x 40 x 1 raised bed. 5-10 bags of compost won't put a dent in it either.
10 x 40 x 1...
