For those who have a garden

Every time I go out to pick my garden I feel like I'm getting free food. I know it's not really free when you factor in labor, time, fertilizer, etc.. But it still feels free to me. It feels like a big Eff You to the grocery store!

I love it because I know what goes in it. I try to keep mine as natural as possible although I do fertilize with both organic and chemical fertilizers. My garden is virtually weed free since I put down landscape fabric and I use manual pest control as well as natural applications for pests as needed only.

At the moment I have cayenne peppers, jalapeno peppers, cucumbers, yellow squash and zucchini growing so fast we cant eat it fast enough. My bell peppers, tomatoes and eggplants are just about ready. And hopefully in about a month we'll have corn and okra to eat too.

My Dad has a garden and he had it the whole time I was growing up, it was about a 1/3rd of an Acre and produced more food than we knew what to do with. He would can stuff so it wouldn't go to waste. I don't think that man ever spent money on produce.

We always had a garden growing up. It only seemed natural and the right thing to do to have my own. I only wish I had paid better attention to my grandpa, I probably wouldn't have the trouble I've had with pests. Thank goodness for the internetz and the feed store or otherwise I'd have given up long ago.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
