Early Vegetable Gardening Tips

Here's how to get early vegetables from your vegetable garden using recycled water jugs from award winning garden author Doug Green - from www.douggreensgarden.com Cut the bottom off a recycled water jug - duct tape the top so that you can open it during the day and close it at night to protect your tender vegetable seedlings. The extra heat and humidity under the plastic acts as a mini-greenhouse to grow much faster seedlings. This system can be used with all kinds of vegetable seeds and transplants (including getting early tomatoes) to give an extra shot of heat and help them along. The only thing a gardener has to be aware of is not letting the cloche stay on too long into the gardening season and summer - because if it gets to hot under the cloche during the day, it can stunt flowers (so plan on removing it during the day and putting it back on at night) This technique is particularly good for growing green peppers

We are proud and honored to bring you a special treat today on the anniversary of the Tuscaloosa Tornado that devastated Tuscaloosa in 2011. Back in September of 2011 we were approached by Todd Murphy formerly of State Farm Insurance here in Tuscaloosa and also a song writer in his own right to come up with some images to go along with a song he and Greg Barnhill co-wrote. Barnhill is an award winning song writer, A-List Vocalist & Top-Notch Producer. Barnhill has written songs for Tim McGraw, Jessica Simpson, Etta James, and most recently one of his song was sung by Don Henley and Trisha Yearwood. Barnhill has also produced theme songs & jingles for: The Today Show, The View, Crown Royal, (NFL) Tennessee Titans, (NHL) Nashville Predators, and several older shows you might recognize: Baywatch, Growing Pains, and Murphy Brown just to mention a few. To be asked to collaborate on this project was humbling and a great honor. The song featured in this video montage was first hear! d at Heroes In The Storm Fundraiser at the Bryant Denny Stadium (The Zone) back in 2011 and since then Murphy and Barnhill have written several more songs. This video will be For Sale with proceeds going to Tornado Relief. If you would like a copy, please email us directly: pielphotogrpahy@charter.net and someone from our office will get back with you.
