HEY! where you are it must be time for planting.
and now it's time to have a victory garden and get it going
A victory can be a patio garden or a plot of area at your house , if you you live in the appartment they now sell hanging planters for gardening.

:sob: But my soil is just all clay(dirt). Don't worry you buy mulch to inrich the soil and gypsum.
You buy veggie plant food to add to the soil.

Composting is in big time!
you buy a composting kit online at any garden sullpy store .
:sleepy: But what do I add to my compost pile?
You add any thing organic such as coffee grinds , grass clippings,banana peels, poatoe peels,
Compost is great for the gardening.

Cold weather garden Plant
radishes, carrots, lettus , collieflower celiery, snow peas , brocoli, etc etc.

SPRING! gardening plant

A german comedian once said, the dutch were the people who first managed to fill water not in bottles but in tomatoes. I just wonder who were the second.
They have lots of greenhouses and bring in the crop up to 4 times a year. Fast growth = less taste and more water. No wonder tomatoes are sold by weight.
Mmmhm tasty tomatoes without phytotoxin...

B.S would be better H.S has weeds but making a compost heap from grass clippings and and thing you throw away from the kitchen to add to compost makes it more richer
