Like the guy above I agree with you. I think grass is a waste of water. I'm going to slowly transform the back/sideyard into something like above. Start at min 2 to skip his war dodging comments.

I've been trying to talk myself into growing heirloom tomatoes.

jacob300zx 04-21-2011 09:33 PM

Trey, I'm also starting some grape vines for some grape lightning :)

Sorry, I had to start at the beginning and I couldn't get past his comments about genetically engineered food being bad so I stopped the video. I think people like him should burn for an eternity in hell (subtle enough for you <G>) for the thousands of dead children for whom he is indirectly responsible.

That being said, I would love to have a raised garden. We keep talking about it but have never taken the plunge. Our last garden had horrible pest problems and it seemed like a huge waste of time. One thing we did learn - grow hot peppers next to the other stuff to semi keep the bugs off them.

We have a huge garden every year.

Corn - three varieties
Tomatoes - four varieties
Lettuce
Radishes
Arugula
Peas
Carrots
Beans
Peppers - jalapeno and green
Spinach
Beets
Lima Beans
Onions
Cantaloupe
Watermelon
Zucchini
Crook Neck Squash

We do put up a lot for the winter. Mainly freeze corn, beans, peas and can tomatoes and fresh salsa

Hey, It's Nebraska, what else is there to do?

Stein 04-21-2011 11:08 PM

^Not much. That said, we do live in the country and have a 16 acre lot with pasture and a couple of horses and plenty of room for a large garden. My lot is 600' x 1500', so it's pretty roomy. My wife and I actually grew up on grain and livestock farms so we've been around it forever.

You all need to move to the city. Seriously.

Ever since I moved to TX I wanted to pick up the brisket art, I can smoke the hell out out of an entire pig east TN hillbilly style. We make wine out of blackberrys back home.

Why? To deal with traffic, shitheads, gangsters, and not ever being able to go somewhere without people. I am allergic to cities.

jacob300zx 04-22-2011 12:50 AM

If I had a choice I'd live right out of the city where ever I could pick up 10-20 for a decent deal.

This is what I do for a living.

I have spent a fortune on my yard. So much in fact, that if I did not have it I could probably afford to do a Ferrari motor swap in my car.:giggle:

Everything is native to Florida.

I'm going with no sauce, slicing with the cap, and I'm working hard on seasoning right now and figuring out what I want in my brisket. My initial goal was to copy Black's, but now I feel that's unfair/impossible. It will be interesting to see where I end up and what people think of it.
