Very nice. You have put some effort into that garden.

You have to be really proud when you stand back and look at that. Hard to believe you can do that in Alaska!

Thanks, Saw some of your pics, you know the effort involved
You must have similar growing conditions at 5000 ft.
Getting around 45° & up at night now, so things starting to really grow with the 18 hour days.

Thanks orgoveg, good soil & long days.

I'm so jealous!! I wish I had space like that. It's really nice, you did a great job. Spend an extra hour out there for me, ok?

You really put a lot of time and effort into your onions! You did a great job!

Are those rain-barrels I see in the background?

Solar heater watering barrels. Our well water is around 40°f. I fill them & let the sun heat the water for the garden & Green house. I believe the warmer water ( around 70) is better for the plants. Built high to gravity feed to hoses around the garden.

Getting lots of rabbit food now
