once established the plants should not need a lot of watering, unless they are not native to your region(where ever that is).

Comment on What are some good beginner garden flowers and plants? by andysoultalk

hint easier to manage a few plants than tiring to drown that 4×4 foot plot.dig-n-turn the ground deep several times work a lot of fibrous matter in with a drink. before any planting, if that was to much work then any size garden will drown your ambition. menu 1st and 2nd year start with an annual array.
bachelor buttons zinnias easy and mid height very colorful fore o’clock a bit sprawling be nice on the out side and several asters to keep the bloomers to fall i like to lace a moss rose in on the edge . but remember you can thin and fill a lot. and you need a step in to keep weeds out.god bless

Comment on How can I start a vegetable/ herb garden in spite of rabbits and mice? by cindy_cee13

Why not start one in flower boxes, with chicken wire wrapped around it. That will at least keep rabbits out. As for mice, maybe set glue traps around the perimeter, baited with peanut butter.

check out your local arts and craft store. they should be able to tell you what to apply to the stones to make them ready to withstand the outside temperatures and keep them safe.
good luck…

Comment on How can I collect rainwater to feed my garden? by Thang Tom

Go to a store and buy a watering jug with a big nozzle at the end and something like a bowl to feed water from the barrel into the jug.

Or if you can spend a little more and buy a water pump and connect a hose and water nozzle and use it.

But try to cover the water so that insects like mosquito will not reproduce in them.

Comment on How much should I charge someone to garden in my back yard? by slingshotseo.com

Don’t make it complicated. You could just charge them $10 per month. This can be applied to water if you’d like to make things fair for other renters. I prefer indoor gardening with plant containers and flower pots. This way you won’t use as much water and you can still grow plants like tomatoes, herbs, and more.

talk to your neighbor, he should keep better control of his cat and not let it off their property. tell him that if you find his cat in your yard again you are calling animal control on him.
