Go over there and plant some sweet corn. We can't grow it in pecan country.

The setup looks good East!


Does anyone know where I can get a Red Oak tree for planting in my back yard?

Theres a tree nursery on 121 and Custer I think. They have all sizes of trees there.

Home Depot had some small ones for less than $100.

Never thought about asking him if I could do that. He's not very sociable but it's worth a shot

That's the one! If I remember they get a little proud especially once it's over 3" but they have a great selection.

Here's a decent look at my full garden. I only have 5 rows this year. Seven if you count the doubles on my onions and peppers. The cucumbers and squash are on the ends. The clumps you see, are clumps of cilentro which ahs gone to seed. There's a few new ones ready to use.

Thank both of you for your kind words. The pond is stocked, but I only fish salt water.

We decided to run west Friday to fill feeders and haul water, I'm tired and sore.

East and Bill y'alls places look great....really like that pond


Payne-Skeeter thanks for the info. I've got 3 horse troughs that I'm trying to get the soil ready for blueberries, I'll see how it goes with all the amendments.

The blackberries are now in full bloom!

Nice place Bill! What kind of trees are those around your pond?

They're all native pecan trees.

Been thinking about this and want to see what the experts have to say...

The backside of my house faces due west. Lots of sun after about 11am and in the summer gets hot as blazes.

I've been thinking of planting some berries, blackberries, strawberries, whatever might grow there along the backside of my house.

Would they survive and is there anything really special I need to know? I've read a little and it makes it sound like you have to have a freakin degree to grow berries.

Blackberries are pretty simple to grow. Do you have a chain link fence or are you going to build a trellis?

Blackberries are definitely the easiest and do really well in our native soil with 1 or 2 applications of fertilizer per year. Once established they will send out new shoots in every direction that you have to keep in check I dig them up and move them or give them away.

I'd have to put up some kind of trellis.

I may give this a shot before too long

Sounds like a plan.

You can buy or build them.

Here's what I grow mine on.



Two cattle panels & five t-posts

I can grub out a mess of these red potatoes anytime;



My tomatoes are showing up in clumps, and a few peppers are sticking.
