***The Official 2014 Gardening Thread***

So what is everyone planting this year? Trying anything new or different? I've already got potatoes in the ground and I'm trying an herb garden this year. I've started cilantro, oregano, and basil in planter pots from seed and will transfer to a 55 gallon drum cut in half length wise and laid on its side with drain holes.

Overall I'm going with tomatoes, green beans, peppers(jalapeņo/bell), broccoli, lettuce, and the aforementioned potatoes.

We scrambled to get plugs in yesterday. Got about 2/10 early.

Happy to have it.

I have a moisture meter I use and water with a soaker hose. I keep the soil at a mid-moist level on the meter but not up to wet or soggy.

What's the bet way to know how much water other than that?

So when I water tomatoes with a soaker hose I watch the weather. Weather man says it's gonna be dry I leave that ****er on for hours. Then I don't run it again for sometimes days depending on how hot it is.
If the weather man says chance of rain I adjust my irrigation accordingly.

But you damn sure want to leave it on long enough to saturate the soil and off long enough that the root stock chases the moisture DOWN.

This is super important.

I've got quite a bit of pine straw (I have a sh'load of it due to all the pines in my yard), but some damn weeds are creeping in on me.

I mulch mine 12-14 in. with straw.
Commercial growers go even deeper.

Pine needles has a shitwad of acid in them btw.

To acid for garlic. Put the pine needles on blueberry plants. They LOVE it.

Pretty much a rule of thumb for most bush/vine type fruits and vegetables.
Not out here big dog. It's the heat most likely.

Don't be doing that. Pine is REALLY acidic and it will smoke off your stuff (unless you have high pH soils.

Go to the farm supply store and buy a straw bale. Pick up those ****ing needles and haul them out.

I wish I could get my Bermuda to grow in the front yard. Hasn't grown in two years. Watering hasn't helped. Drives me nuts. The back yard will grow bermuda all day long. I have a large tree on one side, probably sucking up all the water.

Bermuda doesn't do shade. It's shade not water. You need to plant a species that can handle shade.
