After last years 90% garden loss due to flooding, deer and Colorado potato Beatles 2022 is showing great potential. My Garlic harvest has been a great success. If you are wondering what the heck I’m doing growing so much food? I just enjoy gardening! I love sharing with family, friends, neighbours and anyone who visits. I particularly love sharing with people needing a little help. Some days I make up little packages and deliver them to my senior relatives. It’s always nice to help out the local soup kitchens. Nothing goes to waist. I love canning string beans, tomatoes and things. My onions and potatoes last 4-6 months, the garlic lasted from August last year until June this year….we ran out I gave too much away lol. Enjoy the pictures, share your photos of anything you’ve grown. Big or small we’ll love them all.14 points

Just released my second map this month, mp_hobby_farm_v2. This is a medium/large map that supports DM, TDM, CTF, HTF, and hopefully, HQ. In this map, I worked with rotating brushes, created a few of my own prefabs, and imported quite a few clan pictures for our Headquarters building. We have been running it on our server, IAF Playground , for the last week or so, and it has played well. I included a pair of transporters and 2 mg42s. Please feel free to take and share!

@SGTSmeg you asked a question about growing garlic. I grow the Hard neck variety called Music. Hard neck have fewer but larger cloves per bulb. They(Hard neck) have a woody stock in the centre. They are more hardy in colder, northern areas and tend to last longer. Depending on location and severity of winter HN are planted in the fall 2-3 weeks before the ground freeze’s. This allows the garlic clove to set roots. HN garlic must go through a cold dormant spell before sprouting in the very early spring. HN garlic can withstand diverse soil types but really loves a soil with a lot of organic matter. Most garlic plantings benefit from a thick layer of mulch when planted. The mulch alleviates multiple freeze thaw cycles which will damage the new developing roots. I live 2 miles from the coast and experience several drastic freeze thaw cycles most winters. Therefore I use a very thick mulch, I even have to hold the mulch down with weighted wire fence material or it will blow away. HN garlic produce a flower step called a scape. The scapes should be removed allowing the garlic to concentrate on bulb development rather than flowering. The flower turns to a thing called bulbils. Bulbils can be planted but it would take 2-3 years to propagate bulbs of an size. Garlic must be dried out of the sun with good air circulation for 2-3 weeks. This allows the nutrition from the leaves to be drawn into the cloves. Once dried the roots and stocks should be cut off the dirt can be rubbed off not washed as water will promote rot. One of the thin skins should be removed allowing for a very clean pristine garlic bulb. Here are a couple of pictures from last year’s crop after being cleaned up. If anyone has a few questions I’ll try and answer.6 points

Very ambitious. I converted my 8' x 8' plot into a flower garden and joined the Community Sponsored Agriculture(C.A.S.) across the street to do the work for me. lol. I pay a fee in January and pick up weekly supplies, depending on what is in season, from the end of June to the end of October. It keeps me and my 2 daughters and their families (12 people) supplied with fresh fruit and vegetables for the season.3 points

I'm sorry, I'm so fucking sorry (sob), so so sorry to all my readers in the forums, I never ever realised that joking in the forums and fooling around brought so much pain, I'm truly sorry. I'm just a sad sad clown, fooling around laughing telling jokes fornicating not realising all that time that I was hated - please fucking forgive me (and the other assholes I fool around with, yes you TBB). Last night the Messiah showed me the true path to happiness, from this date at the end of every week I'll issue a chart showing my progress so far, I would have done it in powerpoint, but apparently you're not bright enough to understand things like that. I'm so dumb I thought the market was where you bought vegetables, what do I know? I thought stocks were where they pelted you with rocks and shares part of a plough? stupid, stupid, stupid I have produced a graph showing my braincell count before and after drinking, don't feel sorry for me, both of them count. (You should see Budmans), I nearly inserted a smiley face - forgive me. This is (yet another) new Rob, sober, serious, and downright dull, the joke forum is a thing of the past, my new path takes me to a greater place, where I will Excel (apparently you're not bright enough to get that) (omit another childish smiley) Sad Rob LIKE FUCK1 point

I prefer the joke em' if they can't take a fuck attitude. Some people really do need a slap upside the head. Love that scene in Get Carter. "You're a big man, but you're out of shape. With me, it's a full time job. Now behave yourself." Followed by a roundhouse to the skull & a slap for good measure.1 point -
