Not only does she love my cucumber leaves, apparently she loves the dirt as well.  This morning I went out back to find her lying in a pile of dirt.  She had knocked over my container with Cayenne Peppers and was completely crushing the plants and thoroughly enjoying herself. 

She’s not the only pest I have.  I happen to have yet another dog that enjoys to wreak havoc in my garden.  Greta.  Now who could get mad at this face?

Greta likes to dig.  Big holes.  In my yard.  Sigh… To be honest, this is nothing new, although it has been a long time since she’s done this.  Over the weekend, however, I found two DEEP holes in the yard.  The kind where you would break your ankle if you weren’t looking.  Now, I know how to solve this.  Ladybird (who is 4 years older than Greta) used to be a digger.  The difference was I would bust her in the act, thus making the punishment understandable to her.  Greta is a stealth digger.  Not like Ladybird and the cucumbers.  She eats the leaves right in front of my face.

While I don’t approve of their behavior, it’s a minor problem that produces minor setbacks in my gardening.  At least I don’t have deers or rabbits eating everything I plant.  What really gets me is Ladybird’s lack of fear.  When I found her in the dirt this morning, I fussed, I pointed my finger in her face and even gave her a pop on the nose.  Did she budge?  No.  She didn’t move.  Just looked at me like I was a huge inconvenience in her sunbathing.

Does anyone have photos of their kit?  I’d love to see it!  If you share any photos or videos with me of your UDT kit, I’ll send you free seeds!

Sweet Basil

Cilantro

Pansies

Chamomile

Sage

What I was really happy to see, though, was my Upside Down Tomato Kit.  It looks so great!  I haven’t flipped it yet, since I’ve been gone, but I just had to post a picture to show everyone how great it’s doing.  Again, my soil is the same as what everyone has purchased.  Apparently we were about 1 pellet short of filling the container.  Doesn’t make a difference though, because the plants will still grow and once you flip, the roots are so established that nothing is going to fall out but a bit of soil, which is to be expected with a kit like this.

I hope everyone is enjoying their own kit as much as I am!  I can’t wait for homegrown, tasty tomatoes!

You can Google or follow this link to figure out what the last frost date is in your area.

If you are going to start your tomatoes outdoors, add two weeks onto your frost date.  Now you can count back 6-8 weeks to figure out when you can start your tomato seeds indoors.  If you have an Upside Down Tomato Kit, you need to pay particular attention to this so your tomatoes will be ripe and ready at the earliest moment of the season.

For example, I live in Northwest Florida.  I have a 50% chance of a spring frost on March 9th.  So, add 2 weeks… and I get March 23rd.  Subtract 6 weeks and I get February 9th.  Obviously this day has passed for me, but I started my tomato kit a few weeks ago so I should be good to go! 

If you live in colder climate, say for example, Minneapolis, your last frost is around April 30th (but could go as late as May 16th).  For fun, we’ll use the April 30th date.  Add two weeks and you get May 14th.  Subtract 6-8 weeks and you can start your tomatoes indoors anytime between March 19th – April 2nd.  Which is… right now! 

So go ahead and figure out your dates to make sure you are getting the MOST out of your gardening this year!

However, if you are very unhappy with your purchase, Buzzy has no problem sending you some more soil pellets.  We want you to enjoy your product and get some yummy tomatoes! 

Aside of all of this, you should be seeing sprouts!  Does anyone have a photo of their Upside Down Tomato kit in action?  I will send you a free packet of herb seeds if you will provide some photos.  We love to see how people are enjoying our products!

More People Than Ever Are Enjoying Gardening

IT’S TIME TO JUMP START YOUR GARDEN INDOORS

TYRONE, GEORGIA –(Marketwire – Feb. 01, 2010) -

It may be cold outside, but now is the perfect time to get an early start on your spring gardening. As a result of the economy, gardening experienced a 19% increase last year as many made a cost conscious decision to grow their own produce. It seems like everyone is looking forward to some type of gardening in 2010.

As the top supplier of complete seed grow kits for consumers, Buzzy, Inc. CEO Kees Wurth says, “It is easy to be successful at growing. There are so many advantages to starting your seedlings or growing indoors, plus it is a fun activity that can involve the whole family.”

Here are Buzzy, Inc.’s top tips for starting seedlings indoors:

1. Practice Year Round Indoor Gardening. Many seed grow kits are designed to grow indoors all year long. Take advantage of enjoying these in your home. Herbs are especially easy to grow and can be used on a daily basis. All you need is a sunny window and to follow the easy step-by-step instructions that accompany the grow kit.

2. Save Money. Buying complete starter grow kits are much more cost effective than buying just seeds or seedlings. Most grow kits come with a container, seeds, top-quality soil and growing instructions at a very low price. If you were to purchase these items individually, it would cost a lot more.

3. Protect your Seeds from Outdoors Climate Changes. Starting your seeds indoors ensures optimal controlled conditions for germinating seeds. You will not have to worry about late frosts or rainy weather.

4. Enjoy an Early Harvest. Seeds started early indoors become healthy young plants with a 4 – 6 week start over seeds planted outdoors. Your first harvest will be enjoyed much earlier.

5. Benefit from Longer Growth Season. If you live in an area with a short growing season, starting seeds early indoors allows seedlings to thrive and mature when it is time to replant outdoors. Plus you can try new varieties that take a longer growth period.

6. Peace of Mind. If you grow your own herbs, vegetables or fruits from seeds, you are in control and know that you are enjoying fresher quality, better tasting produce.

Fresh herbs can be grown indoors year-round.
