Default Veggies in NJ

Well broke out the Troy bilt rear tine tiller and went to town. My space is 30ft x 12 ft. I tilled it like 3 times and then spread some 5-10-10 and then tilled in 200lbs of manure !!!! This is the setup I did last year, and I had great garden.

Super fluffy dirt !!!




I also started doing the landscaping out front !!! What a pain in the butt !!!!

stump and tree removal from front of house


cut some new bed edges and started planting new plants


and around to the side


Now need to mulch and put the paper down and plant the last few plants

Default Some yard updates

well I papered the garden and cut holes for the veggies. This year we have cucumbers, black beauty eggplants, white eggplants, yellow and red bell peepers, string beans, yellow and green zukes, few different kinds of tomatoes.

The tomato cages are made from the mesh that you float in concrete, and secured with 4ft pieces of rebar. 2 sprinklers so i don't have to stand out there and water!!! They should hold up !!!! Last year my tomato plants were 7 ft tall !!!!






Also got 6 yards of nice black mulch delivered and started doing the front of the house too.


I like the way its looking !!!!!

Lew I was seriously thinking that when I was shoveling !!! I just missed out on a 149 with a loader, was in New Egypt, the motor in the tractor was knocking something bad but the loader was working great, went there, but the guy was not budging on price. I finally called him back and offered him full asking and he found a motor for it and swapped it and wanted $500 more !!!! Not gonna happen !!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
