Picture!

[jkkfam89]

I have look to see everyones gardens, but have not seen many pictures. I am the person who looks at pictures in magazines and act like I am reading! Anyways, to get ideas for newbies like myself, lets see some of your vegetable gardens!

Here's a photo-series from last year: https://www.helpfulgardener.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12804
There are a bunch more from last year somewhere in the Tomato Forum.

My methods are unorthodox, I admit. But it's fun!

The discussions with the most photos almost *never* have the word "pictures" or "photos" or anything in them. Just read the forum and 1) you'll learn quite a lot and 2) you'll see many photos.

Please remember that not everyone has a digital camera, not everyone with a digital camera has an online account, and not everyone with an online account puts gardening photos there.

Just search for hendi_alex, he is a photo taking nut who has also included a good bit of video.

I understand, but it is nice to see all the different ways people garden and their results. Having a spot to post pictures for others to look at is something people enjoy. It is also a spot for people to brag a little on the great gardening they do.

Applestar: Great job on the gardens

I'm trying to get people to post some of their favorite photos here.

Look for posts by jal_ut. Jal posts fabulous pictures full of mountains and amazing scenery with the garden.

SWMOGardens usually posts beautiful garden pictures.

And lots more (sorry if I missed any of all you wonderful photographers!)

you just have to look around a bit!

Double Dog: Great job, garden look awesome

I really like how everyone has a different garden, but the results are great. Inspiring. So much so, I took my helpers out and started part of the garden
This is the small portion of the garden. I had a pile of last years clippings, so we put them around the plants.

jkkfam89,

Thank you, that was last years. Striving for bigger and better.

Are those your veggies starts They are hugely big

Nice garden, keep us posted.

[jkkfam89]

Double: Yes they are. I am actually going to widen the raised areas, as advised by another member.

[DoubleDogFarm]

Wider would be better, but then you would plant a double row

Awesome veggie starts.

[dremmle]

Here is my garden. I have several varieties of peppers in front, tomatoes, and tomatillos on the left (including the beastly over 3 foot tall beef-master), potatoes and green beans in the middle, and squash zucchini and cucumbers on the back.

Also out of sight are eggplants, radish, asparagus bed, strawberries, and an herb garden.

I know the plants are very close but I have very limited space as you can see, and get the most yield out of my plants this way. The rows are about 3 feet from each other, but each plant is almost touching the one next to it.

Very nice Dremmle, I like the fence, because I (not having a fence) will endure some encounters with Deer! Put on some liquid fence, and crossed my fingers.

[dremmle]

HAHA Deer are not a problem for me, I live in the city of Dallas. The fence keeps out neighborhood kids who like fresh veggies as much as I do!

[jkkfam89]

Dallas, Your lucky to be able to fit a garden! lol.

[DoubleDogFarm]

dremmle,
Where is your Blockhouse, every fortress needs one.

[dremmle]

what do you think I am taking the pic from?? HAHA

[DoubleDogFarm]

You better duck!

[dremmle]

Haha no I live in the city and they are kids! That would get cops called on me.....now this on the other hand.

Is that a spud gun

[dremmle]

HAHA yeah, I do have some leftover spuds I need to get rid of!

[rainbowgardener]

Awwww... come on, jal, do one with mountains!

[DoubleDogFarm]

What, did you see, mnts of green beans.

[dremmle]

Jal that looks great! I would love to have that much space. My idea garden will look alot like that, except I would have one of those buckets full of peppers!

Oh man, all you Florida folks kill me. I'm all excited because my tomatoes have blossoms and my bell peppers have teeny tiny baby peppers...

[GardenJester]

I'm sixty miles north of Dallas. We have deer. Be glad to send you a few.

How awesome are these gardens!

Jal_ut, those are awesome pictures and very inspiring. Makes me want to leave work and get gardening!

Mikus, very good pictures and those vegies look delicious!

How about this for way to many photos

[jkkfam89]

awesome pictures! I went out with the kids and planted some Raspberries, blueberries and strawberries. Looking at everyones pics of their gardens has been inspiring to say the least

[elementfiftyfour]

Here are a few more pics for the thread.

These are all from this years garden so far. The peas and beans haven't been as prolific as the past couple years so I suppose I'll need to dig in some extra manure for next year.

Visit my photobucket page for more images from the past couple years.

Xenon,

Those are great photos. I see by the lawn, you have room for expansion.

Ha ha ha, don't think I haven't considered that already. Actually I would like to put a couple of square boxes in the middle with some flowers vegetables and seating. That lawn actually was a swimming pool when I bought the house. It was however half full with concrete and dirt from my neighbors old driveway.
