22 POUND WHITE SEA BASS ON THE TRADITION

I CAUGHT A 22 POUND WHITE SEA BASS ON A SPOOFER.

I WAS JIGGING A WHITE SPOOFER OFF THE BOTTOM AT ROCKY POINT. I WAS REELING IN 12 CRANKS AND THEN WOULD ALLOW THE JIG FALL TO THE BOTTOM. THE FISH HIT ON THE FIRST DROP AND I MISSED IT. THE FISH HIT AGAING AS SOON AS I STARTED TO REEL AND THIS TIME I HOOKED HIM.

Container Garden 2010

5 GALLON SELF-WATERING CONTAINER MADE WITH A HOME DEPOT BUCKET





I FORMED THE RESERVOIR USING 1/2" HARDWARE CLOTH
AND COVERED IT WITH PERMEABLE CLOTH








BE SURE TO DRILL A DRAINAGE HOLE.

GREAT TOMATOES !!!



I HAVE FOUR UPSIDE DOWN BUCKETS BUT I DON'T LIKE THE CONCEPT. WATER DRIPS ON THE LEAVES OF THE PLANTS WHEN YOU WATER AND THIS CAUSES PROBLEMS.

I HAVE A DRIVEWAY ON ONE SIDE OF THE HOUSE AND A SIDEWALK ON THE OTHER. MY BACK YARD HAS A FEW SMALL FLOWER BEDS SO I PLANT A LOT OF DIFFERENT VEGETABLES IN SELF WATERING CONTAINERS, SUCH AS THESE ONIONS.

THESE CONTAINERS ARE 18 GALLON CONTAINERS AND ARE ALSO SELF-WATERING. I HAVE MODIFIED THE DESIGN BUT I GOT THE BASIC IDEA FROM www.josho.com.

HELGA BEANS

SQUASH

I STILL GROW A FEW THINGS IN THE GROUND SUCH AS THIS NEW ZEALAND SPINACH WHICH IS TAKING OVER THE BACK YARD.

I ALSO HAVE SOME WAL-MART WINDOW BOX CONTAINERS WHICH WORK VERY WELL. THEY ARE SELF-WATERING AND FAIRLY ECONOMICAL AND GET THE JOB DONE.

LETTUCE

EGGPLANT, PEPPERS, SWISS CHARD, PARSLEY, CILANTRO, AREGULA AND HERBS SUCH AS BASIL, ROSEMARY, AND THYME.

HAPPY GARDENING!
