What's all the other stuff sprouting? Weeds? ;-)

Looking good... I just finished 3 of Ray's Earthtainers. I have Brandywine, Parks Whopper, Red Lightning, Pennsylvania Pink, Black Russian and Green Zebra in those 3.

I'll see if I can get some pics up later.

My Dad's ETs from last year had some whopper weeds growing in them! I had some chamomile that was getting pretty huge in one of mine that I still need to clean out- I'm SO behind this year!

Wargamer, that's called a living mulch. :-)

Hey Earl,

I've spent the entire day on my knees sanding the dumb deck with a 3 inch belt sander, so will post some SWC photos for you tomorrow. Anyway....I've found some new muscles tonight, so the exercise was a good thing!

GHurt,

Your 'Tainer with the Husky looks only half full. The roots would be a lot happier (more productive) in a fully loaded system.

Raybo,,
That's a container with the other half of the left over from cutting the bottom piece inside the container. It actually has more inside it then the other.

GHurt,

Then you have found another "benefit" of putting the unused section within the main container. Looks like you could add another 3 inches of Potting Mix for the plants to grow in, which they would love.

Planted and growing like weeds

Raybo this is using a combination of old Tomato Tone and old Tree Tone.

Sugar snap peas in a round SWC. Pea plants were transplanted on 3-30-10. They should start flowering soon.
