[Vhfcn-l] Winter

[Arnold B Christensen]

Don't ya just hate it, when the bodies because of wet weather start 
to rot and gas swellings happen and it just spreads throughout the 
ground and the grass starts turning yellow and then your veggie 
plants start to hold back and eventually quit producing.  I found 
that 5 gal pails from Lowes or Home depot with a few holes drilled in 
them a couple inches up from the bottom and filled with good potting 
soil from those companies is the answer to the problem. You can get 
some water pipe and drill holes at the right distance and a cheap 
water timer and piece of water hose to attach to the piping and makes 
it easy to water each bucket all at one time and you can grow a great 
crop of whatever wherever in your back yard. The importance of 
knowing how to do container growing of tomato plants comes to light 
with this mornings news that down in Mexico the largest tomato 
producing company will be highly affected by the wall that President 
want to erect.
