[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not at all.  We joked that each cherry tomato our garden produced cost 2$ each.  We do it for our kids to have experience with things growing in nature, and because we like it.[/quote]

Silly people - compost your kitchen scraps, coffee grounds and tea bags and make good garden soil. I just toss it in the garden and bury it (when feasible) because I’m lazy and it works. If you want to be fancy compost it in a separate container area then add it to the soil during the spring season. Each year your soil will be better.

Plant petunias and marigold flowers around the edges of your garden to ward off white flies, mosquitos and tomato worms.

Grow a garden, keep the roundup away from your family. It tastes a lot better too. [/quote]
