It wasn't daylight yet when dh came in from work this morning but he said "man we had a heavy, HEAVY frost this morning!" After it was daylight I could see the ice on the fields around my house as I was going about my morning housecleaning chores. I was talking to my mom on the phone and she...

DH built me a large compost bin out of sight. He used fencing stakes and fence that's smaller at the bottom to keep smaller kritters like bunnies out. He made it 4 feet high to keep deer out. I've fed and tended this just as the compost sites online advise for about 5 years now. It was 2 or...

Before I go to bed, let me share my day with you. Last month I got 2 free white nice texture sheets. So today I managed to sew a duvet and two pillow cases. My daughter came by and colored my hair (turned a bit dark),but still saved money doing at home. We had lunch I used ingridients from...

I have left it way too late, but toay is the day for attempting to carve my pumpkins. I hate waste, so, what can I do with all the 'waste'? I'd love to make pumpkin pie, but haven't found any easy recipes. Any ideas?

Here are our pumpkins! Dh did the spiderweb & I did the face. The kids are the "pumpkin gutters" :lol:

What are they in your area? The cheapest I have seen is .18 per pound. Wondering if we should grab some this week or hold out in hopes of lower prices?

I have had very few female flowers (2) and the ones that have shown up dried up and fell off the vine before they bloom. Am I lacking something in my soil? The male flowers are out in full bloom and have been for almost a month. TIA

They are already quite large (think the kind you would pay $10 for at the pumpkin farm) and almost completely orange. Tomorrow I will be putting them (carefully) on newspaper per Rhonda's suggestion, but I am wondering if they will even make it to Halloween. Obviously keeping them on the vine...

...already pretty big! I planted the variety "Jack-o-lantern" and as far as I can tell, there is only one pumpkin on each of my two plants. I would say they are both about 14-15 inches across. They are still almost completely green, but the slightly bigger one is just starting to turn orange...
