not often enough

Right now I can't work in it at all...and it really shows in the amount of weeds needing to be pulled and tossed and the lack of flowers or anything pretty on the front of the house.
If I could work in it then I would do it a few (3-4?) times a week at least.

It varies. I spent hours in the garden a couple of weeks back as I was repotting plants. I'll be spending more in it this week as I'll be rearranging it and dealing with some weeds and such.

I generally take a turn every evening to go slugging

If it's nice (which it hasn't been lately) I take a little time every day and go out and do something.

I don't have a garden as I kill everything I plant except 2 violets that someone gave me.

The few hours it took me to put it in and then the few minutes it'll take to check for things to pick.

Brian goes through and weeds with the rake here and there. Noah will pull the obvious weeds, but not the little ones. I can't squat or bend at this point (28 weeks pregnant), so what they don't do doesn't get done. No biggie.

Hmmm I dunno yet

Haven't started.

It's so hot here...so humid that I all I've done is get the right equipment so far.

When the weather is nice and at this time of the year I do something in my garden a few times a week, even if it isn't for long.

Right now I'm working in it every few days. I'm trying to work on tacking up my tomatoes and my jalapeno plant isn't looking too good :( I think I may lose that one

After we move, I plan on it daily. There is so much to do because it has been neglected for like 9 years. I was over there a week ago and did some planting and have gone back every day to water. The house had large overhangs and so when it rains, they get no water. I am thinking of using one of those things to collect water from the rain gutters, but our gutters go straight into the sewer system so I would have to do alot to get them out and redo the gutters.

Almost every day that it's not raining. I like to go out and work in the garden. Even pulling the weeds is fun, because I know that I'm relieving stress and burning calories doing it.

And in case someone asks, no, I'm not going to come pull any weeds out of YOUR garden!
