Nancy, I have some anti deer pellets (more of a sea salt size sprinkle) that I sprinkle out near the veggies that keep the deers away. In the flower planters red pepper works well after every rain.

ps no rabbits for us as they don't jump up into containers.

Hi Randy and IL!

Randy I do miss seeing your posts!  Stop by when you can.

Crystal, you DO NOT have to worry  about having your picture taken.  You look wonderfu.  Great pic of you and Amanda.  You both look so happy and a great resemblence between you.  Great pic of amanda, too.  You both have so much to be proud of.

Lynn, will miss seeing you, hope you get back to computering sooon!

Chris and Lisa, I bought big boy tomatoes and grape tomatoes yesterday but gonna wait another week or so before I put in the ground.

I can't wait, I pick my new puppy up next Sunday and then taking Monday off to help her get used to being away from her puppy family and used to being with her new human family!

I have a super busy week coming up. so will prbly just read and not post.  Have a great rest of the day.

Georgie,

I would start acclimating the plants to the cold weather now & the sun but slowly. Put them in a 3 season room or the garage for increasing periods of time. Then you can plant and then "tent" them with clear plastic or open ended (bottom and top) milk containers. The tents act as a terrarium.

Thanks Chris, I'll start doing that.  I love tomatoes, and last year I planted some grape for the first time...man, I had more than I knew what to do with, but they were WONDERFUL.  Just pull a handful, rinse and pop in your mouth.  yummy!

I've always loved Big Boy and usually have pretty good luck with them.
