Gardening project update 1
Thursday, May 21st, 2009 | Mark | Off topic
It’s been a couple of weeks since I posted a piece about my gardening project which means that it is about time for an update. I actually took some heat for my first gardening project post; apparently people were disappointed to read about plants on a poker blog, some even threatened to stop reading my blog if I continued posting about my garden.
Therefore before I continue with tales of plants I thought I would write at least something about poker…..
I have started listening to a new poker radio show, “The All in Radio Poker Show“, hosted by Vic Porcelli, Andy Kazen and Craig Hogard every Saturday (I have forgotten the exact time due to the time difference between USA an Europe). You might recall that Vic Porcelli has contributed with some really good articles on this blog. Anyway in the future I will be writing a weekly review of the show and also contribute to it from time to time.
Now back to the garden
Here’s what it looks like now


As you can everything is growing nicely and our tomato plants have their first flowers. We did have a bit of a set back a couple of days ago when a massive thunder storm flattened most of the summer flower seedlings which caused an invasion of slugs and snails. I managed to kill all the snails (killing snails isn’t that hard actually) and pick up most of the seedlings, so we are in the clear for now.
I will update you again in a couple of weeks.

I’m also a gardening poker player. I have just started growing and have found it helps my poker! Very relaxing doing a few bits with the veg after a bad beat. I have posted pics of my spuds on my blog site if you’d like to have a look. Any chance you could put me on the blogroll? I;m good for gardening tips!

Hi Dave
Thanks for your comment. Your spuds look a lot more tasty than the burger you wrote about in your latest blog post:-)
Drop me a line on pokerbankrollblog@gmail.com and I will set you up on my blogroll as soon as possible.

I’m so sick of our garden right now that I feel like pulling everything out of the soil and starting all over again. Every time it rains, all our seedlings fall to the ground and get attacked by snails. I’m so mad right now I could break something….

I know the feeling. Slugs and snails come out in the early evening, especially in the wet. Try slug pellets and crushed egg shells. Stick with it, it’s worth it in the end.
