I know more than one expert weeder that wouldn't think of going out weeding without their fork, and the books recommend them... but I can never be convinced of anything until I "discover" it on my own.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115821731964909442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5713094656031780936.post-9685246122499171322011-10-18T11:14:10.233-07:002011-10-18T11:14:10.233-07:00Now I am a reluctant gardener and engage with our ...Now I am a reluctant gardener and engage with our flowerbeds on a strictly "need to hoe" basis, which is a handful of times a year at a guess. However, I have learnt by trial and error that the garden fork is the ideal implement for any area larger than a window box (not that we have those as well, thank goodness).Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5713094656031780936.post-1506482551148291322011-10-17T21:55:55.039-07:002011-10-17T21:55:55.039-07:00Hey, Musette!

This year I grew mostly cherry tomatoes; getting a decent percentage of them even off the plant is likely to take more effort than I'm willing to go through. :)Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115821731964909442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5713094656031780936.post-91179390802079237092011-10-17T09:07:16.520-07:002011-10-17T09:07:16.520-07:00ROFL!

Problem: we had a late havest so I have a full bushel of tomatoes in various stages of ripeness to deal with. Kitchen and dining room full of boxes of now-sorted tomatoes. Something is eating my broccoli and I am half-inclined to let it!<br /><br />xoMusettehttp://www.bearboring.comnoreply@blogger.com
