This might help with your resolution...
I garden every year - not on a huge scale but enough to feed us. I found a youtube video about a fellow named Larry Hall using a new system of gardening (RGGS - Rain Gutter Grow System) ....really not new, but a new twist....I was growing in a similar fashion but what he was doing seemed so much better using his methods.
So in 2013 I ran a small test of his system, and as a result of that test I dismantled most of my system and converted to his in 2014, and in 2015 will be using this RGGS system exclusively for my garden. It really is a great system that is ideal for any climate, in any sized area, and almost fail proof if one follows the system.
Hi Cornell,
I agree - growing something in your garden, and eating the result, is a bit like experiencing one of nature's "miracles"...
I'm not currently growing any veggies, but we have some fruit trees... Peaches, miniature plums, apples, pears, and lemons. We also have an exotic fruit called loquats (or Japanese plums), which was planted by a former neighbor (who's since moved) on the border, though most of the branches with fruit seem to come on to our side of the border! (For some reason, the current neighbor seems to leave the "harvest" on their side for the birds to eat, so I don't think they mind.)
I looked up the RGGS - Rain Gutter Grow System, and I found this introductory video...

Looks like a great system for growing vegetables!
I had a look at your photos, Cornell, and you sure have a great "crop" there! (I also like your alternative use of a kiddie pool!)
Thanks, Cornell!
Planting the seed, and reaping the harvest... it's also not too different from "growing" a business... :)
Best wishes,
Dien
