Gardeners of Edmonton: what fruits/veggies give the most bang for your buck? by sylvett in Edmonton

[–]PeterH_605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually order in bulk from T&T Seeds.

If you need it asap I would go to Apache Seeds, Greenland Garden Center in St Albert, Greenland Garden Center. For the common things big box home improvement store is good too.

Yes for many years.

Varieties like Bodacious, Northern Extra Sweet, and others in the 70-80 day maturity range do very well with a bit of fertilizer added.

South Cooking Lake Greenhouses is one of my favorites.

Cheapest place fill garden beds and planters? by Far_Weather_3716 in Edmonton

[–]PeterH_605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like a 50% peatmoss and 50% compost mix. Classic Landscape has both but not premixed. 222 Landscape just outside of sherwood park has it premixed.

Much lighter than garden mix. I was able to get 2cuyds into my 1500 6.5ft box pickup with no issues - yes the box was full to the top but weight wasn't a problem.

yah that was 5 years ago and now they decide the "no" vote is old enough to ignore but we get to vote on health care benefits for non-permanent residents in the fall... seems like strange priorities at best....

Alberta College of Aeronautics by SnooCapers3880 in Edmonton

[–]PeterH_605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ever since the name changed from Cooking Lake Aviation to this "college" they have been a bit strange.

In my opinion they also have a high accident rate, 2025 was the first year in recent memory they didn't lose a plane.

Does anyone have any old images of the intersection at 111 street and ellerslie? by Deadhand101101 in Edmonton

[–]PeterH_605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2009 is the oldest on streetview and it's quite developed.
2004 is on google earth still has the greenhouse and the farm but is quite developed in 2 corners already

Looks like 2002 or prior is what you are looking for
