With the metformin hcl 1000 mg side effects seeds we germinated a month ago and then moved into a super cropper for 2 weeks, the weather in texas has been just perfect for getting an early start on the spring season.  After the fall’s moderate success with Roma and Juliet tomatoes, I decided to try 3 different and unique...

I had intended to take this video and do a voice over describing things, but after a week on youtube I realized I was never going to get around to it. The Roma tomato plants appear to have put on so many fruits that it is struggling to bring them to size. After growing 4 inside and 3 outside...

doing a lot of work around here related to gardening, so i figured i’d share some pics of what we got this week from thinning out our herbs and starters growing in the original super cropper.  You can see we had 2 of the backup juliet tomatos still growing in here, but theres no room...

A while back we did some rebuilding of the original Super Cropper system and created a Super Cropper 2.0. It has an improved manifold, spray-lines and anchors for the net-cups. We have been growing with this system for over a year now and the versatility and ease of use is just amazing. We...

Well, yet another new garden is being designed and constructed. Although it is a typical soil based outdoor garden, we believe in utilizing as much space as we c an get our hands on. The task for today was to take a massive pile of leftover stones from the construction of my parents new...

Great news, and many new posts coming your way in the next week! We finished planting at Josh’s house, and transplanted the three pepper plants from my second tent in the soil. More on this later, but with this post I wanted to showcase the first truss of baby tomatoes forming under...

Hey guys, its my first official post, thanks Z-Bone for keeping everyone updated. Ive finally gotten a few minutes to post some pictures of my now flowering jalapenos, and soon to flower Thai...

After seeing the ten or so pepper seedlings that I had germinated Charles found himself unable to sacrifice any of them. The little thai and jalapeno pepper seedlings gripped his heart so firmly that he made the decision to become the “pepper man” for UHGU. Check out the pictures...
