I decided this year to do them!

You can plant them in a pot, mine is huge and plastic, holes in the bottom, I know to give them tomato fertilizer, leave on my porch out of direct hot sun and for protection, wrap up in winter, anything else I should know?

They also grow like weeds and you'll be lucky to get loads of fruit off of it.


If it's white, sticky and not yours dont touch it.

I saw tumbling strawberries, they go in a hanging basket and they just literally tumble over the sides, they look like a fantastic idea if you have a porch or pergola to hang them from with lots of sunshine.

Odie, strawberries will stand a greater chance for survival if you simply plant them. While doing them may be somewhat therapeutic for yourself, the act of planting is less stressful (to the plants) than if you were to "do them." Wear protection....at all times!


Those who are too clever to engage in politics will be punished by being governed by people who are dumber than they themselves!

Pinch out the runners and if you want, take the flowers off this year. You'll get bigger berries next year.


Ok I know they aren't actually berries...


It is febuary 2, groundhog day.
The groundhog comes out of his burrow and sees a shadow.
It's the shadow of my right front tire.
Looks like six more weeks of winter..... but not for him.
