Are you trying to compensate for a lack in another area East?

J/K, looks awesome man.

Payne, I may try that,thanks.

I have to provide for my army

Not yet to army size, I have more of a small militia.

An East Texas midget army doesn't eat as much...

Payne does the mulch in between the rows damper what weeds do make it through?

I don't get any weeds except around the stem and if there is open space in the overlap of the fabric. On occasion I get something growing on bare fabric but those are easy to pull.

Do you have nut grass down there? I was told it would cut through the fabric

Nothing should germinate under the fabric.

Till or Disc your garden before hand and you shouldn't have a problem.

Got er done this morning. this is $10 worth of fabric from Tractor supply (3' x 50') the ONLY thing I don't like about gardening is pulling weeds, this should help. I didn't get it as good as I would have liked at the onions, but it will still stop a lot of weeds the way it is. Best $10 I ever spent.

That's an awesome kennel.

Nice job on your garden too..

Sweet

Thanks. It goes to the left to make a total of 7 kennels like the two you can see in the picture. One stays empty for my hunting/fishing buddy's two dogs when he is down for the weekend.

I can't wait to get my Tomatoes in. If those storms weren't supposedly coming tonight, I would plant my Celebrity's & Jalapeños.

I'm a few weeks behind schedule on my plants. The tomatoes are about 7 days old, the squash and cucumbers 5 days old and the other little sprouts 2 days.

My garden as of today

Looking good guys

CC think we are suppose to get a freeze Tuesday night

I ain't putting nothing else out for at least another week.

Good call

Never planted strawberries, do they produce first year?

So will the weed fabric on top of the soil keep Bermuda from growing?

Yes. They are actually already producing. I'm behind this year. My onions don't looks near as good as yours

I'm going to answer your question to the best of my knowledge.

If you till the ground deep enough and lay the fabric nothing should sprout underneath it. (imagine laying a tarp on the ground)

Saying that I have heard that different areas have different types of grass that can penetrate it. This is my first year growing from seeds and using the fabric so I am not speaking from experience

Ripped out the rotted landscape timbers today and put in a real raised garden using frame-it-all connectors and double stack 2x6 cedar. So nearly have a foot of soil. 4 beds, each 8x8'. Will post pics soon as everything is finished. If you haven't tried frame-it-all, I would highly recommend them. Sure beats trying to nail/screw/square everything.

Still wondering if the fabric everyone is using in their beds will keep out Bermuda.
