<br />
1.A stalk of celery only contains 10 calories. The human body uses more calories digesting celery, and so celery is said to be a great snack, as it helps an individual to lose weight.<br />
<br />
2.The cabbage contains almost as much water as watermelon. Watermelon is 92% water, cabbage is 90%. Carrots are not too far behind with a water content of 87%.<br />
<br />
3.Tomatoes are very high in the carotenoid Lycopene; eating foods with carotenoids can lower your risk of cancer...Other vegetables high in carotenoids are carrots, spinach, sweet potatoes, and collard greens<br />
<br />
4.Most of the nutrients in a potato reside just below the skin layer<br />
<br />
5.The tomato, by definition, is actually a fruit and it took a ruling by the Supreme Court in 1893 to make the tomato a vegetable.Tabithahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07376371767504794472noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4299901785168918069.post-61904350744253797132010-08-19T13:39:00.000-07:002010-08-19T14:02:33.294-07:00The begining of something beautiful!!The start of something GREAT!!!

<a href="http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-build-a-raised-planter-bed"><strong><span style="color: #006600; font-size: 180%;">How To Build A Raised Planter Bed</span></strong> </a><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">You will need</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 Circular Saw</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•16 5 1/2" x 3/8" carriage bolts</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•16 3/8" washers</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•16 3/8" nuts</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•3 2x12' rough redwood or cedar boards</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 4' long 4x4" post</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 carpenter's square</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 pencil</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 tape measure</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 level</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 hammer</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 ratchet w/ 3/8" head</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•1 adjustable wrench</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">•safety goggles</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 1: Measure Twice, Cut Once</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">A solid planter bed starts with good wood. Rough Redwood or Cedar provides the best structure for your planter beds. It's also very important to use untreated wood as the chemicals in treated lumber could find their way into the soil and into your essential edibles. You can purchase the walls of your planter bed in two by 12 foot lengths. For a 12foot planter bed, you will only need to cut the two end pieces. Use your tape measure and mark out two, three foot sections on the two by 12 foot board. Your carpenter's square will provide a straight line all the way around the board when you cut.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The four support posts on the inside of your planter bed need to be 11 ¼” high. Measure out these pieces out on your 4x4 post. You'll want to use the carpenter's square here to insure a straight cut all the way around as the saw will not be able to make it through the post on the first pass. And the most important thing – don't forget to wear your safety glasses and keep your fingers away from the blade!</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 2: Clamp It</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">When fitting your planter walls around your 4x4 posts, it doesn't matter if you overlap the boards on the end or the side; just make sure you overlap them the exact same way on all four corners to ensure the length of the planter bed is the same on all sides. Grab your bar clamps and place two of them on the corner, holding all the pieces of wood together. If you're feeling finicky, you can use your level to make sure the walls are nice and level.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 3: Full Of Holes</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Using a power drill with a 3/8” spade bit, drill two bolt holes on each end of every wall of the planter. Carriage bolts will fit into these holes and keep your planter bed solid for years to come. There are a couple of important things to keep in mind when drilling. Make sure your bolt holes don't intersect on the inside of the 4x4 post or your carriage bolts won't fit. And don't drill all the way through the 4x4 or the opening will splinter and this could also keep the carriage bolts from slipping in easily.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 4: Big Bolt Action</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Remove the bar clamps and start pushing the carriage bolts into all the holes around the planter bed. The bolts won't slip in by themselves, so use your hammer and pound them in so they are flush with the boards. Once through, put a washer and nut on the end of every bolt and fasten them securely. You can tighten the nuts by hand, but you'll need a ratchet with a 3/8” head on it to tighten all the way.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 1: Good Dirt</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The best tasting vegetables come from great soil and before choosing the right soil mix, position your planter bed where it will receive maximum sunlight and access to a watering source. It's a good idea to fill your raised planter bed with one half dirt and one half mulch to maximize the potential of your garden. Figure out how many cubic yards of soil and mulch you'll need by measuring out the width, depth and height of your planter bed. Most home improvement stores will carry bagged dirt and mulch, but you can save a few extra bucks by seeing if you can get it bulk from a local supplier.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Put down a layer of soil first, and then start dumping in your mulch. Use your shovel or hoe to thoroughly mix the two layers together. This will ensure you have a great organic mixture and will provide your garden with proper drainage. If you want, you can use a plastic liner on the walls of your planter bed to keep moisture off the wood, but it's not necessary.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Step 2: Fill Your Garden</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">With the planter properly filled with nutrient rich, organic soil and mulch, you're finally ready to test out your green thumb. You'll be happy to know raised planter gardens require a lot less maintenance than other gardens and can produce twice as much produce. A raised planter bed allows you to plant vegetables closer together than a traditional garden. The biggest factor in deciding what to plant in your garden is the depth of the roots. If you have a shallow bed, you might be limited to certain types of herbs and veggies.</span></div>Tabithahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07376371767504794472noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4299901785168918069.post-70397640296980924332010-08-17T12:03:00.000-07:002010-08-19T14:02:04.284-07:00Can I really do this!!??Ok..
