Comments on: Today’s Hater: Garden More Boring Than Watching Water Boil http://www.watchmyfoodgrow.com/people-who-hate-my-garden/todays-hater-garden-more-boring-than-watching-water-boil/ A South Florida Raised Vegetable Garden Fri, 18 May 2012 00:39:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: FlaNative http://www.watchmyfoodgrow.com/people-who-hate-my-garden/todays-hater-garden-more-boring-than-watching-water-boil/comment-page-1/#comment-34 FlaNative Fri, 20 Feb 2009 15:45:14 +0000 http://www.watchmyfoodgrow.com/?p=233#comment-34 Off topic, kinda: I once saw a photo of a huge mound of peanuts drying under a tree when I was young, and so was convinced they grew on trees. Not to disappoint: the ribeye bush is hooved, but comes with its own fertilizer. I'm thinking you don't have room for it this year. I can get you a few egg "bushes" though -- how bout a hen pen!!!??? Free fertilizer from them, too and they are natural pesticides -- they eat bugs better than the skeeter eater dragonflies! Just think of all those fresh eggs! I can pull directions for a hen house off the web in no time for you.

Somehow that heat doesn't keep me from bicycling in the summer though. I guess it's all in what you consider fun. I just don't like veggies enough to want to put up with gardening. But show me a hickory smoked ham tree or a ribeye steak bush, and I'll be right out there with you in the garden.
