The water trough would be about a 100.gallon sized trough to give the potatoes the depth they would need to grow as a need with the mixture of soil and other items inside the trough ![]() ![]() The potatoes will be grown in a large plasitc horse water trough to act as the growing station for them with it own stand. The tamoto or strawberry buckets will have a small metal lattice for there vines to be attached the lattice as the grow. Įach bucket has it own square or round bucket opening in the stand with a bottom strap on the unit to hold the bucket in a solid fixed prostion and allow the water to drain out away from the area if there is a overflow of the rain water be able to tend the bucket as need The idea is a 1.ft.wide -x-10.ft long -x-3.ft tall sized stand unit that has been weld togerther out of scrap metal that acts as a stand that holds a sqaured or round plastic container for gandening. So my idea is to make something like that but without the bottom bucket to see the ground under the area to keep from steping on or mess with a rattlesnake or other little creatures who bites. In a tv show i watch alot i saw a lady who had a craft supply system set up that was made from recycled diff sized plastic buckets and she had set up them for storage of her crafting supplies with the smaller buckets at the top and the larger buckets on the bottom of the rack. So have a plan to put them up about three feet off the ground with a steel rack set up with a simple strap across the open bottom to allow the person to see under the area and to poke at the buckets side to see if something does come out of the bucket before putting your hand in the bucket. I used that type of set up before but in Az it thing with most gardeners i know that they all want the units off ground high enough to keep out the rattlesnakes or other very bad for your critters that are in the area where i live. I keep forgetting not everybody is buried in snow like us for another coupla months. They all started looking the same after a while. I found a few others, Vegetable Garden Planner - EZ Garden and Vegetable Planner. That program didn't seem to be as comprehensive as PlanGarden but I'll take a second look at it. it looks the same and it was free for like a set period of time too. Maybe Mother Earth is re-branding it and taking a cut or something to support their site? I dunno. I did run into that one from their home site. We should put my posts onto your thread and then I can delete them here or something so this is all in the same place for people. Kckndrgn> I totally missed your thread and it's darn near back to back with mine. I'd be interested in what you guys think. haven't had time to check it out, Landshare Colorado. it has waaaay too many limitations IMHO, Garden Master. Looks like about 3 months to me for their family of 4 illustration. It never did tell us for how long though. This was interesting, Vegetable Garden Planner. there might be someway to get the data into Access or something else or is this just wishful thinking?Īll these vegetable planning softwares seem to want to hang onto our "data" to keep it safe for us. ![]() I took some classes at the community center that introduced me to what they could do and I'm thinking. Can any of you computer geniuses think of a way for me to use this software while hanging onto my own data? I've got Microsoft 2007 Word, Access, Excel, PowerPoint and just about everything else. it's my data that this company seems to want to keep "safe" for me that's bothering me. I know how to take screen shots and save them so I could do that but. I'm sure there's limitations to what their servers can store so they've got to cut us all off somewhere. Anyone who gardens knows you need access to all prior years for best results but. those who buy their software only have the ability to view one prior year's garden data and layouts. The other problem with saving my data to their server is that obviously everybody else has to do that too hence. Here's the biggest problem, Download the Vegetable Garden Planner Software, " You will still need a LIVE Internet connection to run Plangarden for both download and online versions because SAVES to your garden are made on a remote server." I really don't like saving all my data to their server because this assumes I'll always have an internet connection and that's a pretty big leap of faith in my mind. There's a few problems I spotted with it that are making me nervous. I found one software that looks like it has the majority of features I need, Vegetable Garden Planning video manual. With all these "preppers" here nobody uses any software for food production?
