The name of the game is Root crops, tubers, and bulbs with edible ends. We are focusing on putting things under the ground.

So sign up here if you are interested. I'll post swap partners on 08/25, unless someone objects.

Thanks,
Diane (Gardenkitteh)

Sign up today & lets have some fun!

But I will enjoy reading about all the goodies everyone else gets LOL!!

I'm thinking of six packets of seed or three bulb types or any combination of the two, with one bulb set=one package of seeds. You might also include a tiny gift in there of a shovel, or a seed planter, or something meant to go underground. Any objections? You can also specify if you do not like growing root veggies (like radishes and carrots), or if you want to grow nothing but radishes because you mistrust those trixy bulbs.

*smiles*

If figured doing this in September would be a good time for this swap because you are planting garlic and many other bulbs that call for a fall planting.

Thanks for volunteering to be part of this swap!
SunnyK--I think we can accommodate that fairly easily.

Come on people! Don't make me beg!

How is everyone and their gardens? Mine are doing pretty good now. :) I made a butterfly garden yesterday, got good and dirty and felt like I accomplished what I set out to do. :)

__________________________

As for my garden, I've come to terms with the fact that I was not meant to grow squash. After months of fighting off the vine borers all of my squash leaves are now covered with white fungus. ALL of my squash. My papya squash, my triple sweet pumpkins, my white pumpkins, my butternut squash. . .

I've decided that obviously the squash doesn't WANT to grow. As I'm not a HUGE fan of squash, next year we're growing more cucumbers.

But my lemon cucumbers are doing well and I have a few waiting to ripen. They are hanging off of the climbing vines, all fuzzy and round, looking rather like the fruit of a balloon plant--or anything that those fruit happen to resemble.

My tomatoes are getting pink, and my black tomatoes are looking pretty (Thanks, Christy!), my corn is a lost cause, but the ladybugs took care of my aphid problems finally. It's a good first year for my garden. *smiles*

So ....muy garden....well, things are ripening slower this year than in usual years, but I guess that isnt a bad thing as I am not overwhelmed with any one type of veggie. I have a new favorite tomato...Aunt Ruby's German Green...yum!! Of course there still are 2 more tomato varieties in the garden that havent ripened yet, so next week I could very well have a new favorite!! And them again I will be planting new tomato types every year for the next decade with the way I am going so who knows what will be my favorite then.

GK, so sorry to hear about you squash plants...what a bummer :( but it sounds like your cukes are doing great!! I love those lemon ones, I didnt have good luck with them , but last year my Mom's were great!!

MMM Sunny all the varieties you are trying makes me want to have tomato's for FALL!!

Its too hot here to have root crops or I'd be jumping at this swap. (maybe its just me not knowing how to grow root crops in this climate eh? nonetheless I will sit back and enjoy reading.)

Smiles,
Pixie

I came to terms yesterday with squishing bugs. LOL Those buggers were getting close to my melons and I'm not having it! Up in arms! err fingers and gloves... hehehe I also planted my fall squash so we'll see how that goes. Summer squash and others didn't do so well after they started producing. Darn bugs!

Kathy

Don't ask me what I thought it was...geeze, my brain gets me into dumb trouble...lol.

Sunnyk I would like some of your Aunt Ruby's German Green, I saw those on a website an thought WAY COOL!!! lol. If you get some extra seeds would you be willing to share?

Anyway,,,if ya'll will have me this month (next month?) I would like to join in...

:) Fran

I agree Polly! LOL I just bought some goodies on Ebay! I'm such an addict, but hey it could be alot worse than seeds! ROFL I also left a lot of weeds, it gets so dry so fast that I fear pulling them all out. I need to mulch better next time, maybe that would help?

I hope everyone is having a good week!

Kathy

:) Fran

WAIT.... I thought that was what this swap was also. Where did I miss something????

A dizzy and confused
Pixie

Pixie! HEHEHE OMG I'm so tickled right now! Where's Diane when we need her?!?! LOL

Becky, on a roll like butter again! :D

AND again, THANKS SC1, now I actually had to go and EXPLAIN in DETAIL to poor Pixie so she can jump back on the bus instead of her detour!
I can see now, SC1, you are going to keep me in trouble...LOL...

:) Fran

Now I'm comfoozed. I'd like to dub this "Worst Swap Evar!"

I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough. If more than one person was confused then it's obviously poorly communicated. I thought I was bein' clear. . . Lets try this one more time:

We are sending either seeds or bulbs. You can specify just seeds or just bulbs if you'd like (SunnyK wants just bulbs because she doesn't have much luck with taproots, though I do believe that if you send her a packet of seeds for an allium she'll be happy)

So here is the current list:

Am I missing anything.

lol I meant when I said I can't grow things underground (now as I re-read what I said I am laughin and thinking about the lil chipmonk things on the old cartoons that took the carrots and root crops from the gardens beneath it.) Sheesh I can confuse myself even trying to explain!

ANYWAYS... what I meant was the climate and clay ground here doesn't allow me to grow potatoes/radish's etc. I have tried before and there are others around here that do so maybe I am just doing something wrong lol eh?

I am sooo sorry GK, you explained it wonderfully the first time, I just had a brunette moment.

Smugs, (smiles & hugs)
Pixie

GK, it wasn't that you didn't communicate it well, I just didn't actually READ the whole idea before my mind begin it's visions and I quickly turned away from the post...THAT I will admit to being MY mistake...in no way was it yours...

You wrote in the first one:The name of the game is Root crops, tubers, and bulbs with edible ends. We are focusing on putting things under the ground. and that is as far as I got, cuz like I said I don't have any of that sort of things growing at present so I stopped reading there...then I got curious again after there were so many post and I came on in to be nosey again an take a peek at the goings on and I am glad I did...lol

Can we make request for something we might HOPE to receive?

See, its all good confusion all clear now...now ain't that right PIXIE GIRL??? lol.

:) Fran

Hey, not having another brunette moment here (btw I am blonde so I can say that) but how do you actually grow potatoes? Do you plant the entire lil seed potatoe or cut the eyes? (I DO know that potatoes don't make seeds thank ya very much!)

Fran what is it that you are hoping to receive? (being nosey here lol)

Pixie

You get one with lots of eyes (those are roots) and you put it under dirt. You then mound up the dirt as it grows so's you get more taters.

I've heard it's better to use certified seed potatoes rather than the ones you buy at the supermarket because potatoes are really susceptible to disease. My mom grows from supermarket potatoes, though and she's never had a problem.

Pixie, if you start with regular old market taters, where ever you see the little sprout you can cut that off the tuber, making sure you cut at least 2 or 3 of the little shoot things off on EACH piece you cut and lay it cut side down. Cover it up with an inch or so of dirt and water. The great thing with taters is, the more it grows the more dirt you can pile on them and they will/should produce more taters where ever their roots are touching soil/mulch whatever you used to cover them up with.
Then when the tops (green growing part) start turning yellow or dieing dig them, and whalaa...Edilbes! LoL. You can dig a few early on for young or "NEW" potatoes, those are really yummy with the skins left on and boiled whole, dash of salt and pepper, drained, butter added...ummm, umm..
My mama used to cook them on top of green beans too, that was ok too...

Let me see, Pixie, I am wanting some more salisfy
since something is killing mine. I would like some of those purple carrots and Leeks, shallots, garlic for sure...and any unsual buried treasures anyone can think of...

:) Fran

Potatoes potatoes, yummm! My uncle always used potatoes from the store too, he would slice a little off the potato with the eye and plant that part and as it starts to grow mound the dirt up around it. Pretty cool stuff. You can also grow garlic from bulbs bought from the store, much cheaper too. :) I'm really trying to get my hubby to round up some wood so we can make the raised beds for root crops.

I think I'll just direct myself to the timeout corner now... hehehe

Oh , and Fran ...if you want to send me a big box of veggies, I would not turn it away LOL!!! And what is Salsify like????

My vote is for Sexiest Swap Ever!!! And I lovie the Kittehs too!!

And you can't food me! You are so amused by my fumbling that you want to keep me around to host future swaps for sheer entertainment value.

I've thought about it, and I'm cool with this.

And of course everyone loves kittehs. It's impossible to stay mad at them:

Two weeks later DH was wrapped around Toby's paw.

Then I got my kitteh:
http://flickr.com/photos/stephenduncanjr/264148874/
Her name is Gretchen. She's my baby girl princess.

I love the look of utter and complete calm on the cat's faces when they are doing these things. Like "Dude, I know I'm WAAAAAAY to cute for there to actually be consequences for this."

I do love your kitties, though. They look very very comfy.

I just ate my first lemon cucumber tonight in a salad. They are like normal cucumbers, except these were very sweet! There was no bitter under taste but that may be because I keep my garden almost over watered. My husband said the store bought cucumbers taste "watery" compared to these, but they weren't bitter at all. The skins were very soft so I didn't bother peeling them.

Gonna have to give those lemon cucumbers a try next spring. Sounds yummy! :)

Hope you all had a great weekend! Looks like we'll be getting a LOT of rain this week due to the Hurricane coming this way. Hope it doesn't ruin what's left of my garden. :(

sunnyk, I don't have a clue what salisfy taste like. I had gotten some seeds cuz I wanted to know too, I got them to sprout, planted in the garden and I had a dog walk on them, those didn't make it.
Some others something else happened to, all in all I ended up with 2 one I missed in the seed bed,so it is stying there, the other one is struggling to make it in that awful ground out there.
I was curious as to if we would like it or not, so I traded for something a long time ago and got these seeds, so they stay viable for a while too. Didn't germ as good as they could have if done when I got them, anyway, I was hoping to grow enough to find out if it was something we would eat.
Now I am out of seeds...
Oh well, night all.

:) Fran

Buca, the one on the left, has decided that she no longer likes to walk on the grass! So I walk here up & down the driveway. Bear, the one on the right, is my little garden buddy.

That's so weird. I grew up with dogs, but my husband doesn't HATE dogs, per sae, he just gets annoyed with them after a while. He thought it applied to cats as well (after all, everyone knows men hate cats), until he actually lived with one. "They are tiny, beautiful creatures who completely illogical, and yet I feel compelled to worship and obey them. I don't see how a heterosexual man can NOT love cats."

What cute puppies! Buca sounds so dainty.

Southern Charm;
You can always try my favorite response when the cats destroy something. "That looked like it was fun to do." But I am owned.

The lemon cucumbers were a pleasant surprise.

I love all the Kitty and Puppy pictures :)

I, of course, will jump in and share some of mine too :)

This is my sleepy pile of babies...Penny is the black blob and she is 12, Marco is my spoiled baby guy at 3, and Comet is one of my 2 kits and he is I think 6 or 7....Gabby is my other kitty but she was camera shy.

Sexy Marco

Thoughtful Marco

Becky, I can picture Buca highsteppin in the snow! giggles... Spoiled rotten goes with the territory, our fur babies get by with more than our kids do. Of course it's cute when the kitties are wrestling each other on the floor, but not the kids! hahaha I'm sure one day I'll hear, but the cats are wrestling and you don't say anything to them! HAHA!

Hope you all are having a great day! I'm going to look up Salsify cause I've sadly never heard of it before. lol

And SouthernC my kids are always complaining that I love Marco more than them because he gets away with everything and they dont ...LOL!! I do so love them more...but I love him different ROTFLMBO!!

Ok, I will stop bragging but hey its fun showing off our babies eh?

Pixie

I'd feel very sad if she left us.

Other than that, Yay! Pretty babies! Keep posting them! No one can feel sad when looking at pictures of animals. For that matter:

www.cuteoverload.com

Best. Website. Evar.

Heather, those are two cutie pies! Love the sweater!

Donna, Kids! ROFLMBO!!! They are always coming up with something!

Fran, (((HUGS)))

On a happy note...I love all the doggy pics and kittie pics...and maybe I will post my baby later my chihuahua (her name is Muskrat), and my ugly Cheyenne (mixed German Shepard guard dog)...lol, she is just a puppy, good grief she is going to grow up to be the ugliest dog...what was I thinking when I picked HER out???

Again thank you all...I appreciate it and I do feel better this morning...much much better now thanks to all of you...

:) Fran

But NCG, I hope you are OK...I am drying some Aunt Rubies German Green as we speak(type), I am going to ferment some more so I have seeds from a few different ARGG fruit so there is a good representation of the variety. :)

at anyrate (((((HUGE HUGS))))

And I love Muds fangs...such a cutie smile!! Of course all the furbabies are adorable...and I look forward to seeing Cheyenne and Muskrat!!

I am very happy 'bout that...just hate that so many ppl had to see it first...

Pics coming, I promise...been doing other things...got stung 5 more times today by FIREANTS...we are going to get the baitstuff and spread it everywhere to eliminate that problem too..

But will get out there an get pics of the pups and Muskeradoodle (poor little dog gets called everything, and she actually ANSWERS to all her pet names..lol)later on...
Her real name is Fran's Lil Muskrat...I used to have a Siberain Husky who's name was hope...register name was Fran's only Hope...anyway, I swaggered there..pics yes...later..promise...
Ok,,,finished rambling,
:) Fran

Marco has a bazillion names as well...lately I have taken to calling him 'Dootie Pup' which I guess came out of me calling him 'Puppa Doo'...cause they both sound SOOO much like Marco ..right?!? ROTFLMBO!!

Yes those are Mud's real teeth lol she has a very bad underbite (moreso than most boxers have lol). As far as dressing her up lmao she HATES clothes! Even bandanna's and she hates it when Rebs wears clothes (which he loves doing!)

I love all the names and pic's of everyones babies! LOL Sunny, hmmm lmao Puppa Doo I love it!

Fran, I totally missed it, but I'm glad to hear it was resolved and you're doing better.

This is Cheyenne...she is new to us so no 'pet' names yet:

This is Cherry; Cheyenne's sister...I DID not name her...the boy did and we got her so Cheyenne wouldn't bark or be loney at night: and much prettier than Cheyenne, I think

And this is my baby who I will miss for the rest of my life; Her name was Holly, and that is Muskrat when she was just a pup.

Well, There you have it...my pets...the spoiled rotten one and the soon to be guard dogs...they already bark at stuff when they know it doesn't belong, and they don't bark when they are not supposed too so they are going to be good dogs!

:) Fran

Aww Fran, they are soo darn cute! Is that a growlie face I see on Muskrat? LOL I understand how you feel with losing one of your furbabies, that's the only down fall I see to having them. We almost always outlive them. :(

Donna! That poor traumatized puppy! Dootie pup! Shamie on you, J/K. I sooo didn't expect that one. ;)I get the resemblance in the names Marco and Doodie Pup! OMG! Snorting going on!

Thinks Pixie has connections to the powers be. giggles... If not that's ok too, HIGH FIVE! ;)

Becky, I was beginning to get worried! You were definitely missed! Love the full name for Buca, it's so sweet! :)

Man, I gotta go to bed. I'm gigglin way too much!

Yeah, losing Holly was very very hard...she was just a sweetheart...she was my baby baby...best gosh dern dog ever...ever...ever I will never have another as good as her.

Don't ya'll think Cheyenne is uber ugly? I really thought she was going to color up like a real German Shepard...she was wet when we picked her up, so she was off color...then she dried...OH MY GOSH...Cherry is what I had hoped Cheyenne would look like...
But she is a good pup, and she will pal around with me already in the yard so that is a good thing....

Me thinks pixie is super!!! pixie I think my fav would have to be mud...I like the color of the fur

Sunny, marco is just too sexy for his fur...just too sexy...uhh...lol.

Those pugs are adoreable too, the one pic is up close an personal....lol

I love the Shih-tzus, I want one...

We can't have cats...the landlord doesn't like them...we had a stray that I started feeding and she had kitties, anyway, the neighbors bullbuster dog (its a killer pit, it killed the other neighbors beagle that somehow got loose in the night too) somehow got mama cat and killed her...we finished raising the kitties and had to get rid of them...

SC1 I hope you went to bed, you were getting giddy there...lol.

I'm headed off that way too.
:) Fran

And I think Cheyenne is an absolute doll!! What an adorable face , with the one Pretty ear...and the one Floppy!! I could just kiss her little face!

Now I have to post my beagle, Maggie May on here. Could someone tell me how to post my pic on here? I could never get a pic to load for me. I am dumb.
I love our IE swap group! We are so awesome! It is so nice that we can all get along and talk about stuff other than our seed addictions!
Again Fran, Holly looks so precious! I have such a soft spot for beagles. And of course, everyone elses doggies and kitties are cute too! I looked at everyone's!
And early thanks for someone who can help me out on posting pics to this thread! Luv, Christy

PS Did we get any more luck in recruiting people to this swap? I believe the roots and tubers have had their feelings hurt with the low turnout (haha!) We should post on the other forums, "Save the Roots and Tubers, Where Putting us in the Ground Is A Good Thing!"

Ok,I am sure that was only funny to me.I think my surgery meds are really kickin in and making me nutty!
I am sure I will be regretting this post tommorrow! Please forgive my dumb jokes! Christy

I love the Beagles too...my next door neighbor has a chubby little beagle guy who comes to visit on occasion, he is such a sweetheart.

As for putting up pictures, I use Photobucket to host my pictures, then when I want to post them here, I just copy and paste the link from the photobucket site that says 'HTML Code'...for other sites you would use the HTML code: < img src= " file location and name" > (omiting the spaces that I put in so I could post it), at least that is what it says to do when I did a search on how to post pictures LOL!!

Please make corrections below:
What am I doing wrong? I know I did part of it right because they pics show up in the preview screen. What Am I suppose to put in the Name of Link area? Maybe that is what I am messing up.
Again, thank you for helping me! I am sure it is very simple, but of course, I cannot get it right! Christy

Christy that was super funny!!! For some reason, everyone else must not like to eat... LOL Ever heard of the starving artists? Well I think we have some starving gardeners around here. Of course there are some edible flowers so I could be wrong. ROFLMBO!!! I'm glad that you love it here! :)I'm glad to have you back too, you were missed! Thought I was gonna have to send the Posse out looking for you and Becky! :D How are you feeling? I hope you are recovering quickly! :)

Diane, where are you at chickadee? It's safe now! :D

I didn't know some of you were MIAs so but I will say welcome back anyway...hehe

Some days I don't think Cheyenne is all the bad and then somedays I do...lol. Today she was a pretty girl, she listens pretty well for her age and I don't think she is going to be a pain to train (oh look I rhymed) either, she seems to take direction very well. I guess we will see.

Christy, it was funny honey...Me thinks that should be this months motto...LOL.

:) Fran

I was just wondering, cuz if there isn't too many I have and idea I liked to pass your way, so if you will later on shoot me an email...hehe!

SC1, I just full of hilarious! teehee.(although some might have another opinion 'bout what I REALLY full of... muyahhaaaaa, uh, 'scuse me, pushing me horns back down, didn't mean for yous to sees'em)

Later ya'll,
:)Fran

I think the pets on the thread out number us traders! hehe!
Christy

And Yeah....what's the plan Fran....I can't take the suspense ..it's killin' me!!!

Fran is full of... ROFLMBO!!! ;) Ideas??? Dangit! You can't do that to us, we will surely burst from curiosity! :D

I can't tell you's 'bout the plan yet. I haven't talked to kitteh, and she is the one who has to say if she would like to do something different... ya'll know that, shame on you peeps for trying to jump the gun...hehe.
If I don't talk to her 'bout it soon however, I might forget what I thought about...adhd kid still have those moments...either that or just old age..not sure which for sure.

Yes, SC1, ideas, yeah, that's what I'm full of...yep yep,,we'll leave it at that...hehe

Gosh, I guess everyone is going to bed...

I ain't ready to just yet...what am I gonna do?

:)Fran

Where is everybody...I need to vent...ERRRRR!!!!!

ERRRRR....

and a silent Pixieluvplants

:) Fran

She emailed me from a borrowed internet connection to explain what happened as we where in the middle of a conversation when all Hades broke out and she lost her conncention.
Let's all hope she gets everything patched up and put back together and reconnects soon.

Here's wishing you luck with that girl...GOOD GREIF what a mess...

I will let her fill you all in on the details upon her return.

:) Fran

Seems as if we had water damage after all. Our intention was to lay new carpet and paint yesterday. I laugh at the thought that something would be easy as pie. ;) Donnie moved the couch, his knee hit the wall and the dry wall just fell apart! Everything was drenched inside and mildewed. Course he wasn't a happy camper... Had to rip all the dry wall and insulation out and clean up that mess. In the middle of that, he must have knocked the jack out of the wall with the baseboard removal or something. Who knows... But now I have connection. :D Today will be a busy day... *scrunches up face* Hopefully we'll at least get the dry wall up and mudded.

When Dad came over to help Donnie with the wall, I went outside to see exactly what my gardens looked like. Everything is rotting from all the rain we got. Ground everywhere is a spongy watery mess. :( Should have just stayed inside.

Anyway, all in all we have our health and lots of love so all is good! :)

Can't wait to swap!!! Something fun to look forward too. :)

Welcome back Diane! :D

'cause it sounds like fun. I might all come crashing down around my ankles, but I'll get to say "Whee!" as I'm falling so it'll all be okay.

So should I just assign everyone swaps? Please e-mail me with requests for things you'd like to send and like to have sent to you. I'm looking at the thread and people's lists but I'm kinda slow and prone to miss the obvious.

Thanks,

Nancy

Kitteh, if we do a Robin Round can we add suprises in there too of reg. everyday veggies? Just wondering.
Anyway...I game for which ever we do...its all good, and FUN...hehe

:) Fran

So I am thinking that a GardenWeb round Robin is different than round robins on other sites...cuz the RR I have seen on other sites were: a box started by memeber #1 filled with #1's stuff, shipped out to member #2 who takes out what they want and puts in what they have of equal or greater quantity, then send to #3 who takes what they want and puts in what they have, ships to #4 and so on and so forth til it goes back to #1.

But if you are asking what people want and what people will send then I have no clue as to what sort of RR this is going to be ...so color me Queen of the morons ...ROTFLMBO!!!!

So....uhhh....what exactly is a Round Robin ????

:) Fran

Does anyone have any objections? 'cause we are changing things so late in the game, how 'bout I give everyone until Tuesday to object. If no one objects, then we'll do it that way.

If everyone could send me an e-mail to confirm this, I'd really appreciate it.

Just have to make sure once it flies, the person you send it too has so many days to seek and send to the next and also have DC# when they send it off.

Fun Fun Fun Fun...yeppers it is.

:) Fran

I'm thinking I'll start it off, and since I'm starting it off there will be four seed packs and five different types of bulbs.

Now you don't have to replace everything in the box. You can if you'd like, but you can also not pull anything out if you don't want anything.

You have one week to send the box to the next person. In that time, you basically pull out seeds and bulbs that you like, and replace the ones you've pulled out with something of equal or greater value. Then you send the box to the next person.

Any objections?

FRAN! Congratulations!

Please email me with your address and I'll get your goodies packed and in the mail this week.

Becky

Thanks though Becky and Sunny for the congrats...lol.
I'm a winner and didn't even know I was a contender....lol.

I think at this point it isn't gonna matter either cuz I'm thinking kitteh will be wanting to killeth me REAL soon... :( hiding shaking with fright... not thinking hear kitteh kitteh kitteh, not thinking...shaking head NOOOOO!!!

Oh LOOK there is a total of 8 (eight) of us...nice EVEN number...makes it REALLY easy to, ummm...umm...gulp, PARNTER US UP....it's not tooo late, it's not tooo late (remants of Dorthy in my head...oh toto, What have I done?)
Fran< who is not to make ANYMORE suggestons...nope, nope, nope...hehe.

:) Fran

Diane - Was wondering if other misc gardening goodies will be ok to add to the pot/box same take and replace system... And maybe put an envelope in the box for everyone to add a recipe to and each person can take out the one they like the best and replace with one of their own...

You won! Hurray!
