***Official gardening, landscape and yardwork thread***
We had a 2014 gardening thread and another planting trees thread. Figured it would be better just to have a general thread to share knowledge about all things yards.

I've learned stuff about growing things here in the desert from people all around the country. Post pictures and share your knowledge!

I will invest in 75% vinegar concentrate next as I know that works to kill the weeds AND the roots. 1 gallon of vinegar + 1 gallon of hot water in a 2 gallon pump sprayer will take care of a lot. Probably need 5-6 gallons of vinegar.
Have you tried a weed torch?

I was looking into those for the sporadic weeds in my rock lawn and wondered how effective they were.

I'll go 1-2 weeks without watering a single thing in the yard during winter depending on the rain, and I have lots of tropicals. I'm always turning it on and off in the winter. I'll rarely turn it off in the summer, even when it rains because it just gets so hot.

10-day forecast in KC is pretty good. But the low of 30 degrees Wednesday gives me pause.

Might wait a week.

I own The Torch that I bought 3 years ago and have used it often. Unfortunately the community has a ban on open flames of any kind and they resent a letter banning it. Lots of people complaining and to be honest, there are natural gas lines that could be hit the way the utilities are laid out in the community.

This yard had a pool and not a single plant 9 years ago. I’m proud of the work we’ve put in. It’s been fun planting it and seeing it grow. I never grew a single thing until I moved here but I love it now.

He's a dig in the dirt for fun kind of kid. He really loves digging holes and moving gravel from different parts of the yard.

I’ve probably replaced at least 12 various varieties of plants & bushes around my house, as well as two holly trees. It’s ****ing expen$$$$$ive to keep a nice yard around these parts!

A few more and then I'll be done. Limes will be ready in about 2 months. The Passion fruit flowers have never turned into fruit yet so we tried hand pollinating them this year. Hard part it they show up for a day and then die but man are they pretty.

Grapes are about the easiest thing to grow here. Some winter pruning is all they need and after that just basic watering and some fertilizer. They grow like weeds here. Peppers are Serrano peppers. I will ferment some and make salsa with the rest.
