Re: New to list


Gosh it's good to get friendly gardening email again!  I thought the list
had dissolved.  This report just in from Alabama - BRRRRR!  Temp was 19 this
morning and I had been thinking we were going to be able to grow things all
winter like the year before last.  Time for plan B.

About planting in the cinder blocks.  I have never had luck with that.
Everything I try dies.  I figured it had something to do with the southern
heat and dryness, or chemicals in whatever they mix to make the bricks.
Maybe there is a cinder block with larger holes so things don't dry out so
badly?

Also looking for better irrigation than sprinklers.  Is drip irrigation
really complicated to set up?  Are there a lot of problems in maintaining
it?  Seems like it would be a better example for the kids and parents at
school than turning on sprinklers.  Would sure be interested if anybody has
experience along these lines.
