"Nearby gardens" or similar feature?

by jinty,

I see from previous posts that a "friends" type feature has been suggested already. How about a "gardens near you" feature, for those of us who have specified a location?

This was going to contain much more whining about our landlords

by Skud,

... but I'm tired of it, so I won't. I just wish our mutual understanding of the term "quiet enjoyment" involved fewer inspections and more autonomy in the garden. Anyway. The other day I picked up some herbs from the CERES nursery, and on Monday I planted them along the front fence: ![he...

Crop page suggestions

by maco,

I only have one for now, but for a bigger mouse target, I think the image, not only the crop name, should be linkified. Any others?

by ribbonknight,

I see that other people are able to upload images to use as their avatars, but I can't figure out how to do it.

Worms!

by juliet,

Dug out compost this week and I have never SEEN so many worms. It was a highly pleasing sight. I've seen a decent number in the raised beds, too. Given that in summer 2011 when we moved in the whole garden was paved over and the ground underneath was compacted clay with virtually no soil life vis...

Southern hemisphere - what are you planting for winter?

by Skud,

Let's get this ball rolling! I notice there are a lot of antipodeans (mostly Melbournians, ahem, wonder why that is?) signed up so far, so I'd like to know... what are you planning on growing over the winter? We have some chard that's still going strong from the summer, but I think I'll plant...

Suggestions!

by pomke,

These are just some random ideas after spending an hour on the site: * Friends! it would be great if I could friend someone! * Friends feed, on the home page (once logged in) having a list of updates from people I'm following. * Post comments: replying to a comment is a bit odd, I can only ...

Community Garden - Dandenong Ranges

by pomke,

Hiya everyone! I thought I'd post quickly about a project I'm trying to get set up, a community garden in my local area. This has mostly come about because I'm on tank water at home and we sadly had to let our veg die during this hot summer we've just had with no water. I've done some scout...
