MacKenzie Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 When you first planted them did you plant with all the growth below the soil? Also maybe yours sprouts were longer than mine. When I planted the sprouts were about 1/2 inch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 After another heavy killer frost last night my potato plant was done for so i dug underneath and came up with these treasures. I have already taken 6 potatoes out earlier and the in total there were 41 potatoes. Thanks to SK because she inspired me to plant the potatoes slips in the first place. I will clean the soil off later but right now I don't want to damage the this skin on the potatoes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Killing frost already? Hoping to keep my stuff going for a while here, especially my chiles. I will probably rape and pillage the basil plants soon to make pesto before they get hit with cold nights. They don't need to see frost, just cold air (40s) to go bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKenzie Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Thanks All, I think I'll be doing this potato bag method again next year except I'll have at least one more bag added to the plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted July 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Wanted to update this older thread. 2 years into the goldfish pond. It has 1 male, 1 female and 1 juvie. (that's the way goldfish work). Anyway the pond and fish have been growing and kicking it. We now have 2 baby goldfish in the pond (3/4"). I'm sure way more hatched but looks like 2 survived. This is way kewl. As soon as they get bigger I'll try and get a picture. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, except for the grading, sanding, rocking, more sanding, fencing, potting, that came before building the pond... LOL.

Took down my last saltwater mini reef only 3 weeks ago. It's sad but unfortunately no good fish stores unless I'm willing to drive 2 hours. I'm not, but if a really good saltwater store opens up reasonably close by I'll start another tank up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
