Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

And do you have any neat plans for your garden this year?

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I don't currently have a garden but we might be moving somewhere with one this year. I'm so excited!

I've been reading a lot about permaculture and am super excited to try some of it out. Even if it's simple things like coplanting to reduce pests/disease risks.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I think permaculture sounds like an exciting idea, too. I already love the idea of mixing native plants, ornamentals and edible plants in landscaping. All the work it'd involve feels very daunting, though!

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

It definitely seems daunting! It probably helps that we will hopefully have a blank canvas to start from - the garden is just a square of turf. The book I'm working from suggests a full year of surveying the site to build up an accurate picture of what conditions and soils, etc you have to work from. Then you design the site.

It's definitely intense but it should be fun!

I have never had a garden, but yes. I now own a house so I want to make one.

Digging the lupines out of my dad's backyard, where they've been moving towards the forest ever since he bought the house fifteen years ago, and where I've been trying to get rid of them for ten.

Of all environmental problems on the planet, these very specific invasive species are the ones I've faced the most this far in life.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

No, because I can't walk down the street without wanting to go berserk and weed everybody else's yard

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

Anon below you and even though my own yard weeds look like fucking Audrey II, I still sometimes yank them out if I’m waiting for a bus or something.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm always afraid that someone's going to yell at me, like they *wanted* that foot high grass sprouting everywhere in their yard

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT—if anyone wants a yard full of malva parviflora they are either truly starved for green veggies, or a dumbass. Shit can get taproots four feet long and the ones in my yard are covered in some kind of rust, too. I’ve been yanking them while the ground’s still soft but soon I’m gonna need to weed with a shovel.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I would totally let you weed my yard and reward you with iced tea and cookies.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[tabaqui]

Eh. Depends on the weeds. I like having dandelions in my yard, because they attract bees, as do the thick patches of henbit. When i couldn't have anyone cut my grass for a while (no lawnmower), bunnies made a nest and had babies in the tall grass (which i then had to rope off so the lawn mower guy didn't mow them over).

Weeding is good, but....not my yard. Weed my mint. :D

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I’m in coastal southern California so spring basically started when the rain did. Daffodils are blooming and I just put a couple of the cheap climbing roses from Home Depot in the ground. All the rain (which we desperately need) means some of the weeds are waist high, though.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

My dad loves gardening and yes, he is very much looking forward to spring. I, on the other hand, can't keep anything green alive.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm looking forward to the autumn! (Gondwanan anon here.) I'm going to plant some tree-ferns and a Wollemi Pine, to make a little Mesozoic corner in my garden. And I'm going to plant all the things I've been toting around with me for the past year, during which time I've moved house twice. They'll be just as glad to get settled as I am.

I must get my garden sorted out first though. Like, all the ugly concrete oaths dug up and replaced with something nicer, and the overgrown shrubs cut back and the dead ones taken out, and compost dug in and mulch put down. I'd like a vegie patch too but that might be a bit ambitious before the winter.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

No. Because we'll likely be getting a new outbreak of stinkhorns and it sucks, I hate it and I kind of want to burn the whole garden to the ground every time they show up.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

Aren’t they—I dunno the term for plants—exothermic? They actually get a head start on growing by warming themselves up! That’s kind of cool, even if they are stinky. But I probably wouldn’t think so if they grew here.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah like... in theory they are interesting. But unless you're a necrophiliac who's really into the intense stench of rotting corpses, they're not fun. Doesn't help they're basically impossible to completely get rid of.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[bur]

I'm gonna plant bulbs for the first time! :D

Mostly all I'm doing, though, is changing my tiered raised bed around a bit, putting to tomatoes in the middle tier so they can shade potatoes in the top tier.

Currently, I'm marveling that both my thyme and my winter savory survived the -20 temps we've had, plus getting dunked in a few feet of snow, AND I'm thrilled that my elderberry canes are showing some growth. I planted it last spring, and then this endless clusterfuck of a winter happened, and I was very worried for it.

The Immortal Chive remains immortal.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

Just bought my house at the end of last summer, and I need to get a tree removed and deal with some drainage/grading issues before I can figure out what the heck to do with my garden. Maybe gardening will happen next year.

Re: Gardeners of FS, are you looking forward to spring?

[(Anonymous)]

You can always do some container gardening until then. You can just move them around as needed. Herbs and flowering annuals will grow in pretty much anything.
