Your plants are coming on nicely, Barbara! :)

Today we built a little pond in the corner of our garden.
We are hoping to attract some frogs and other wildlife. Plus, the birds will have somewhere to come for a drink.

Beautiful, plants are some of the most wonderful of creation and when shown near water, nothing seems able to top the beauty.

Glo,
I really like your garden pond. It is really nice how you utilize your garden. I hope you are able to attract the wildlife you are seeking to. I know the frogs and birds will be appreciative of your pond. :D

Yes the veggie garden is coming along, the corn we planted last week is now up as is the the squash, melons and cucumbers. I will post updated photos of them soon.

Salaam,
Barbara

She is a little sweet heart. Excellent disposistion. I might say something different when I start training her next summer.
 
The one next to him is the reason we went to that farm. We "rented" the black stallion for stud service of 4 of our mares that are ready for breeding.

I just realized I do have a garden this year after all. Even tho I did not have to plant it. A field of wild strawberries that will soon be ready to pick.

The strawberry plants are the little 3 leaf things growing close to the ground.
 
Loool bro guven, i actually thought that was urs in the beginning! looool
urs is so boring.
You know your supposed to PLANT things in it.
OTHER than grass
lol

our garden is sooooooo tinyyy, its like literally 6 x 10!! and HALF of it is leeks which are my parents , while the other half is supposed to be mine, full of strawberries, corn, lettuce, red radish, white radish, and some other stuff...but well...its been liek 4 yrs of me waiting for the lettuce and corn...i guess this is what happens when i dont stand up for 'my' garden when my brother tries to pour lawnmower oil all over it.
the strawberries are rotten, radish is tiny and sick, and corn and lettuce...never came up

I need to hire a gardener!
 
^^LOOOOL Yeah it looks borin compared to the other gardens in our street
but we were thinkin of removing All the grass and putting stones Like my neighbour did :D
 
It's actually quite inspiring to see somebody with a passion for gardening. I really like the idea of growing your own fruit & veg.

Plus, compost heaps are all-important, bearing in mind that as God's creation we have a responsibility to protect the environment!
 
lol guven Don't forget, you supposed to PLANT things in a garden. lol. so add rocks plant something, or steal some of the nieghbors plans and say the storm took it, put it in urs then take real pics.
btw is that seriously you front yard?! where do you park the car?!

I should steal my neighbors plants, that way next time i mow the lawn, i can get paid extra for 'enhancing' it. lol

interesting thread glo

i checked out composting

http://www.recyclenow.com/home_composting/composting/index.html

^ i dont see where the worms come in tho :confused: !

You will probably find worms in all compost areas ... after all worms love to eat decaying vegetation.

I looked up the difference between a standard compost heap and a wormery, and found this:
A wormery is a special bin which contains worms and when organic matter from a kitchen is added to the bin, the worms digest and break it down into a rich compost.

A compost heap performs the same function as a wormery but it does it on a larger scale and it uses bacteria and micro-fungi to perform the job.
A wormery is usually smaller and more compact. It is also designed to deal with smaller quantities of waste, and generally a wormery produces less odour, which makes it ideal for placing outside the backdoor close to the kitchen. On a domestic scale a Wormery also works faster than a traditional compost heap.
