    Well I guess not s big as your garden sounds..lol. Me being new to the area here will have to do some trial and error. We have Deer and Ground Hogs out the wazoo and they are fine eating machines from what I saw when we got here late last summer. Im a seed freak by nature, so I have bags and bags of seed that I have collected from dinner preps and will try and go throw hand fulls of Spaghetti Squash, Cantaloupe, and Bell Pepper seed out around the areas with enough light to support them and let nature take its course. I will either have a bumper crop or a freakn petting zoo. 1 or the other.
    Based on what I do know, I will probably tray and get some 5 gallon buckets
    and grow maybe 6 -8 matos and the same on the Bells, but will keep them up on the 2nd floor deck..where only a bold critter like a coon/possum would travel. I currently have 4 matos in the grow room with around 40+ matos on the vine Both Better Boy Hybrid and Plum Dandy. With many young Bells Red and Yellow, and only a couple of them are 10" at this point and should produce for at least a couple months. Oh and 3 heads of celery..had to try it. A tray full of Radish, 10 of probably 50 have broke the soil. My biggest garden challenge this first year here, will be to find flowers for the yard the deer don’t like to eat. They are always around eating the wild raspberries.

    You know I may try and do a hydro setup on the deck, I have never tried an outdoor hydro setup but think between hydro growth and performance with free lighting.. it just can’t get any better. I really need a Greenhouse.. Good luck

    Yes i've been thinking about building a greenhouse this spring. Guess i could do it for around 100.00 since i already have the wood for framing. Oh so many projects and so little time:-p

    Got my new stuff on order.. didnt buy to much seed because Im going to try and use up what I have in stock.
    I will do a Starwberry Thread when I get them in. I will get cuttings and put them into the homemade Aeroponic system, drop a couple 600w lights on them and move everything else outdoors..
    I should have mass fruit after they get established.. doesnt take as long as soil where you have to wait 2 seasons for real fruit production to kick in... should be interesting.

    Oh and for those that wana code: FEB10 is good for a few more weeks I think.. its 10% off buys over $25 I think

    I might be able to get a clipping from my mom's strawberry plant, question , would it grow if I got 1 leaf and start to root it and if it roots will it grow into a Strawberry plant?

    I said cuttings but they are actually a couple leaves with a couple roots attached.. I would suggest digging up a clump and breaking it into multiple pieces..or really just spend $10 and get your 25 plants.. they come in bags to preserve moist roots until planting. The roots always have a thin layer of sand as this is optimal growing medium because they require nice drainage.
    I feel this is why they should thrive in either an aeroponic or fogger system.
    Growth should be explosive I would think. You could try and take some clippings, but they grow from a clump except for the runners.. this is your best chance. when you look at the runners, at every new node you will see where it will root if touching soil.. this is how they creep throughout the yard. Once established you can actually remove sections in between and the rooted runners with continue to thrive.

    This pic says it all..

    Hi Redrum, I love Park seeds...I have grown many of their varieties, IMO they are a great value.

    I live in the same area as you and I feel compelled to recommend one of my favorite Park Seed varieties...
    New Guinea impatiens, Tango Hybrid. These do fantastic in beds as well as containers, super vigorous with never ending blooms all summer, very colorful.
    They can tolerate direct sun much better than regular impatiens!



    New Guinea Impatiens Tango Hybrid
    Impatiens hawkeri Tango Hybrid

    Big 2 1/2-inch blooms refuse to fade . . . even in the sun!

    Big Orange Blooms Aren't Afraid of a Little Sunshine!
    Plants grow 2 feet tall and 18 inches wide.
    An orange Impatiens is about as rare as a blue rose, and a sun-tolerant Impatiens of any color almost seems like a contradiction in terms. So to find both together on big, early, non-fading blooms--well, it's just one of the most remarkable New Guinea Impatiens we've ever had the pleasure to offer! Tango won an AAS award when it was introduced in 1998, but the hybrid has been reselected and improved for larger blooms and tidier habit. Now these rich orange blooms with delicately notched petals span 2 1/2 inches across, and arise nestled among and above fascinating bronzy-green foliage. Just 2 feet tall and 18 inches wide, the plants remain compact and fresh over the very long season. And the sheer abundance of bloom is staggering!

    Park Seed: New Guinea Impatiens Tango Hybrid - A New Guinea Impatiens with sun-tolerant deep orange blooms.
    If you wind up with a boring, miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest or some guy on TV telling you how to do your shit, then YOU DESERVE IT.
