I am building a container garden on my covered patio. I am using wood pallets and they look awful. I would like to cover the sides with some type of material that is water resistant . Any ideas? Thanks!

You can cover it with plywood and then paint and seal the whole thing. (You should line it with plastic and then fill with soil). I saw this on a home improvement show.

You can also cover it with corrugated metal roofing panels. You can screw them into the wood. Still line the inside with plastic to prevent the wood from rotting.

Acoustic cover of one of my fave early Depeche Mode songs from A Broken Frame. My Secret Garden. Maybe the song hasn#39;t aged very well, but ...

We are in the process of creating an outdoor space for our pool. We have a large cement wall that acts as a fence that we want to cover with some type of vine or other plant.

If we use a flowering vine how long does it take to grow and how quickly would it begin to cover a wall?

Are there other options that I do not know about besides vine to get this same "garden" look?
I don't have a "flowering vine" I said IF we used a flowering vine, of any kind...

Fist, not sure what "flowering vine"you have so I can't really say how quickly it will cover the wall. Ivy normally grows quickly, with ample water.

If you want to get away from the vines try Bamboo.I grows incredibly quickly and stays green year round.

Good luck!!

I love fresh herbs and have an outdoor kitchen herb garden in the spring and summer each year. So I've become spoiled and no longer want to use dried, store bought herbs. This year I decided to make one indoors. I planted seeds of common kitchen herbs (parsley, rosemary, marjoram, etc) per seed package directions. They are in small pots on my kitchen counter with a grow light over them. I watered them thoroughly two days ago when I planted the seeds and assume I should water them a bit each day.

My questions: How long should it take before something green peeps out? Should I cover the pots with plastic wrap as suggested on one website to keep in moisture and heat? Anything else I should be doing.

Thanks for any help. I've never done seeds before - have always planted plants in the outdoor garden.

i love fresh herbs too,in India however fresh herbs are limited to cilantro,mint & curry leaves,but i have an acquired weakness for herbs from other countries & so have to grow them from packeted seed,they do well in pots & take about 7 to 10 days to germinate,i grow them outdoors till summer which is fierce in our part of the country,then thay are moved to shady spots in the garden.Unless the weather is cool ,i dont think plastic wrap is needed,but using it will do harm.Happy cooking with fresh herbs

I am new to owning cats. I have 2 outdoor cats that are here to keep the mice under control. I live in a wooded area. Don't fret, they are well fed and taken care of and I keep up with all vaccinations. I am planning on putting in a small terraced garden spot but I know once I till the soil and get seeds in the ground they are going to be using it as a litter box. I was thinking about maybe covering the area with some kind of nylon mesh or netting. Any suggestions?

Yeah, I'm thinking the mesh might be your best bet, unless you can get some 'cat-away' spray. =)
