Getting close to having a vegetable garden with my raised beds. Found some free quality local soil with a very nice consistency to blend in with lots of compost. My ratio is about 50% native soil well sifted and various MG potting and vegetable soils mixed in.

Needed to maintain a few flowers but if I have my way they will be pulled out for some peppers latter on. The small MJ plants, who knows maybe I will find a few keepers when they are sexed. Im about ready to crack some more beans for a second round of hopefully a dozen more sprouts to fit in a greenhouse thats still under construction.

I hope folks dont mind me showing off my veggie garden. There might be a few late season MJ plantings amongst the tomatoes this year. At least all this gardening in my yard will help conceal my herb production somewhat.

Hey Everyone!

I've been home on short term dis. and the weather has been iffy! But I was able to get some update pics of my girls enjoying a Spring day in the "Atl" I'm so proud of these girls I started them early outside cause they out grew the closet. Been outside since 3/6 and
loving it, not one single problem even with dips of cold weather they hung tough, These ladies are in the 4th week of flowering and seem to be coming along fine, Here some updated pics. Everyone seems to be getting ready for growing season and I'm damn sure gonna be here to see everyone's gardens! Happy growing and many future grows!

Man, I'm really happy with the vigor of some of my WR x TT. First to show hairs, #1, is also the most vigorous and best structure, by far. #1, back row left, and #s 4 and 6, front center and right, look like the ones I'll concentrate on, all have been topped and the main shoot stuck in dirt. Odd plant just showing top in the far left back is a Rosetta Stone I was just gifted, supposed to be a real short flowerer, too.
