SUXBNME 1,340 Posted April 15, 2008 I've been working my ass off the last few days rototilling, weed whacking, etc... to make some space in my back yard to put in a focking vegtable garden. (my roomates idea, not mine) He gives me this laminated schematic he made of the dimensions, what goes where, seperation, etc. and says he'll buy and take care of the sh1t if I clear and prep an appropriate area. Like a moron I agree. Here is what is going in. 8 rows of corn 4 tomato plants Garlic section Zuchini section Squash Cucumber 6 okra plants tons of various peppers Cantaloupe Shitloads of carrots 1 Avacado tree Ghey or manly? some pics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Me_2006 14 Posted April 15, 2008 If you can convince me under 50% of that list could be used for ghey anal lovemaking, then I'll return your hetero-cred. Til then, you're gay. not that there's anything wrong with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fumbleweed 426 Posted April 15, 2008 There's nothing gay about growing and eating fresh vegetables. They taste awesome and you add years to your life. To me, the whole idea just sounds pretty darn smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chronic Husker 85 Posted April 15, 2008 Here's what's going to happen - you're going to end up with 500 cucumbers, 2000 tomatos, and nothing else. I hope you're attempting to grow sweet corn, at least. As a matter of fact, I'd probably sack the whole corn idea. It takes up too much space and probably won't even turn out. Try growing green beans. Although a pain in the ass to pick, they are way better than anything you can get in a can and relatively easy to grow. Holy crap, I'm turning into GFIAFP.

IGotWorms 3,317 Posted April 16, 2008 Nothin' gay about a food garden. It is productive. You can eat that stuff. Now, if it were a flowery garden that you were putting in to impress your neighbors... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BiPolarBear 476 Posted April 16, 2008 I really enjoyed having a garden in Maryland. I don't have as much room or time now in Texas. Don't forget to grow some herbs. Cilantro, rosemary, sage, and the like fresh from the garden can really make a meal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ERZER 0 Posted April 16, 2008 There's nothing gay about growing and eating fresh vegetables. They taste awesome and you add years to your life. To me, the whole idea just sounds pretty darn smart. Agree, but a laminated plan? If your roommate is male, then he more than likely is and you better kill off everything that resembles a potential dilDOH If a female, then you might as well marry because you're owned.

supermike80 1,287 Posted April 16, 2008 Not ghey. I thought about this myself---corn huh? Never thought of that..Where do you live again? MN? Isn't it still too cold there? Seriously..I'm in MI and we need another week or two. I was gonna grow peppers, green beans, maybe some tomatoes and cukes but it sounds like a fock load of work.

Let Da Big Dog Eat 37 Posted April 16, 2008 Idea fine. Plan, totally ghey. Put any kind of tree there that gives any kind of shade and nothing else will grow. And, you can't be serious about corn. Lot's of shade f'ing up everything else and providing something that's really cheap anyway. Concentrate on stuff like tomatoes cucumbers etc that ripen at varying times so you can eat the crap instead of watching it rot. You need rhubarb so you can get wimmenz to make you strawberry rhubarb pie. And, you never have to replant that. And, F the zuchini and squash. Strait men don't eat foods that have z's or q's in them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUXBNME 1,340 Posted April 16, 2008 Well, at least now your cats will have some place to shit They have already tested it out numerous times in the past few days To anwser some other questions: Supermike - I live in NorCal. 75-80 degrees here lately ERZER - My roomate is male, but the focker just won $1600.00 in the NCAA brackets, so he's not ghey. (plus he seems to win our FF league every other year or so ) Fumble - I won't eat any of it except for the avacados and various peppers, but I agree with your statement CH - You are probably right about your assesment of what will end up growing properly IGotWorms - You, (and CH) are also correct about the faggity flower garden. Needless to say, it didn't pull in the type of pvssy that I expected SexualHarrasmentPanda - I think that he (roomate) is going to put some herbs in..

Foamfinger 0 Posted April 16, 2008 How much space are you talking about for this garden? That is a lot of plants. Also, an avocado tree might not be the best idea. It will take a few years to really produce and they are very susceptible to frost. Its not exactly Arctic, but Sacto does get a few solid frosts per year.

Fumbleweed 426 Posted April 16, 2008 You are gay. Real men live off of beer and potato chips. Fresh vegetables are for gay hippies. Men with fairly short life spans live off beer and potato chips, but hey...more power to you. I love potato chips, so I really can't say much about that. Fresh vegetables are incredibly good. I like grilling vegetables on the grill alongside a steak or pork chop...that's where the zucchini and squash come in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
