No, but she did take the parental block off of G4.

Buster, are those purple beans like stringbeans or do you shell them?

busterb · 06-21-2005, 02:39 PM

String beans, they turn green when cooked.To me just easier to see when picking.

warch · 06-21-2005, 04:36 PM

And they are beeee-uuuuuu-tiiiiii-fullllll!

BusterB,
What is the name of the seed, and where can I get it?

I was just outside looking at the sugar snaps and snow peas. I didn't realize that they had begun to set pods. I saw the flowers last week, so i figured it would be soon, but they are pretty well hidden. (Or I need glasses)

Purple would make it easier.

busterb · 06-22-2005, 12:53 PM

Louisiana purple pod beans. I get mine at feed store. I love sugar snaps & snow peas. Guess I need to get more wire for a row next year. Or plant bushh type so can pull up when time to plant other things.

busterb · 06-22-2005, 12:56 PM

Blue berrys on wash rack I built. Pie this wkend. Yumm.

LabRat · 06-22-2005, 01:06 PM

Wow busterb, nice job! The pipe planters in your album interested me, what did you use to seal the ends up so the dirt doesn't fall out?

BigV · 06-22-2005, 01:23 PM

LR, I know you weren't talking to me, but I found this. May be interesting/useful.

My parents came back from their place in the country with 20 pounds of cherries, and my mom's been pitting and preserving ever since.

It was pie last night.

footfootfoot · 06-22-2005, 07:35 PM

I like the washrack, you're full of good ideas. Last year I put up about 30 pints of blueberry jam. I think washing them took about half the time.

This year I am freezing everything, I've got more room than time.

15 quarts of strawberries so far.

busterb · 06-22-2005, 09:01 PM

LR. I cut the ends out of pressure treated 2x 12s, then screws. 1 board made the base and ends HAd to cut 2 circles out. 1 for the ID and 1 for OD.

Undertoad · 06-25-2005, 08:41 AM

Happy gardeners, the amount of growth still amazes me.

Zucchini flower.

Yellow squash coming along, can't wait for this.

Beans developing - and wrapping around each other very tightly.

First sign of pea development.
