My knowledge began with my Grandmother, then magazines(Southern Living & Garden Gate) & books(Dan Gill's series & A-Z Encyclopedia of Garden Plants), then Victory Garden & HGTV(until there was no G in it), then I became a MG and work at Burden Plantation and the Botanical Gardens. But surpassing all that when I found DG!!!!! I have never had anything like it in my life and am an active member here now. The info I have gathered is invaluable in my garden but the friendship and new family I found was an extra bonus!!!! HOORAY for Dave's!!!!!!!!!!

The great thing about Dave's, I think, is the contrasting opinions. In a book or a magazine or even a course, you have one person or source who is the "expert" explaining the "correct" way to do something. Here, we are all collectively empowered as experts about what we know. Even if all I know is that my impatiens did better in the shade than in the sun, to someone who is wondering about a colorful annual for a shady spot, I am an expert. In fact, for the purposes of this poll, I am an expert about what sources of garden info I use ... which btw include other online sources. Always, of course, cross-referenced against DG.

DG OF COURSE!!
When I moved to Calgary (almost desert!) I figured I could get away with the same gardening as when I lived in Winnipeg! no, no, no! Even though they are the same zone 3 (3a), the chinook winds are killers on tender plants!
I get invaluable info on plant ID as well as care & feeding! Who knew that ordinary wood chips would take the nitrogen out of soil and therefore one of the nutrients needed desperately by plants? Only by talking to a DG'er would I have found this out, AND gotten a Calgary Hort membership!
Thank you, Dave!!! :-)

DG is not only my #1 source of gardening information, it is my #1 source of information on a whole range of topics. It seems like lately any time I have a problem, I think DG. It doesn't matter if it involves my car, my house, animals, you name it, with such a vast and diverse audience, there is bound to be someone on DG who knows the answer. It is quite incredible really.

I voted "none of the above" because I use multiple sources. DG is a heavy favorite, but I also use Sunset Western Garden book because it's specific to CA. I've learned not to plant anything until I look it up in both sources. Now if I could just learn not to BUY anything before I research it thoroughly, I'd save myself a lot of money...LOL!

However, I have found many, many folks with similar challenges to share with and many who also do the same dances of joy. So (all together now) We're Number One YA! We're Number One YA!

LoL, dahlianut. Just by asking the question on DG, you know what answer they are going to get (of course!). DG is certainly a great source. I would still stick to getting better information by having more than one source and want to encourage others to do that too. Its helped me to even know when a piece of info on DG is wrong :O and that a particular plant really will grow in zone 7. I guess I'm just weird this way ...

Yes, of course, it's DG!! I log on to DG first when I need to know something. If it's not on there, they will tell me where to find it.

I was just talking with another DG gardener at the ORV round-up last Saturday about how supremely useful it was to have all the folks on DG as instant Gardening 'Mentors'!

Whenever you have a question you can run inside and post it on the right forum and get lots of expert advice instantly. Or do a search in the middle of the night for an esoteric question and have the info right at hand. Very very useful site.

Books are fine, but the information in them is often outdated even before the books are printed and they are expensive, to boot.

And I think magazine writers cop a lot of the posts and ideas from DG for their columns and articles.

When I started gardening in the 70's, I read all the books from my library I could get my hands on. Started growing annuals, graduated to perennials and from there to seeding my own.

I guess you can say I learned from reading and personal experience from years of gardening. I also owned and operated a commercial greenhouse during the 80's and that taught me a lot about plants and the business of growing.

Learned some things on Daves also, regarding specific plants I was not too familiar with. No one ever stops learning no matter how long you garden. I am still learning and will until my life is ended.

Whatever happened to the answer "all of the above"?

Actually when I first started "serious" gardening about 6 years ago I went with our Plant Doctor Melinda Meyers...started watching gardening shows, then buying magazines that wound up being subscribed to, I found Dave's Garden in a magazine then I went to the Master Gardeners classes. I guess you can see when it comes to something of interest I hit most avenues. The longer I garden the more I realize there is something to learn most everyday and so I continue with the gardening shows, going where Ms Meyers is where ever she is, keeping my subscriptions and checking the county extension where ever I get a chance.

I use a combination of sources. I use the communities to discuss things the plant files to look up different plants. I use my books for reference on things I can't find here as well as magazines for ideas and inspiration. I am always inspired by the member's gardens and enjoy the discussions about what works for some and not for others.

I joined DG because of the plant files - I get so much good info from them! And like others have mentioned, you can't beat DG for being able to connect with others who share your own geographical concerns. How many times have I explained that "full sun" means something different in Florida, LOL? Also, as a regular on the Butterfly forum, the other members have been so helpful when it comes to rearing caterpillars. I get a lot of info from books, but there are so many things books claim as a rule and then other members will tell me how they've bent those rules time and time again. Now that I've been raising butterflies for two years, I'm able to give advice to newbies. I love teaching others all about host plants and my cute little caterpillars!

You should be QUITE proud, Dave. I don't know what I'd do without DG. I have dozens of books but even after referring to them, DG is where I always find the answer that makes sense for my region, my problem, my questions.

The countless resources, advice both near and far, your articles, videos and all that you provide here is priceless to us gardeners. Your Admin and UBER staff are outstanding. "I once was lost, but now I'm found...as a REAL gardener thanks to DG!" Thank you, Dave.

Oh and Bob...I totally relate to your remark! :-)

Although I rarely go to the plant files, there are so many knowledgeable people on each forum who are ready to help answer questions.

In Dave's short life, he has accomplished building a phenomenal gardening site which will continue to grow. Kudos are in order for sure to all the staff...and Dave himself!

Well, DG is great, I admit, but MY *best* source(s) for having information right at my fingertips, is a combination of Books, Internet, and DG.

DG is still a 'work in progress', and doesn't always have complete information that pertains to me and my needs, but combined information obtained from all 3 sources is usually complete.

On the other hand...if I specifically *post* a question, it's usually answered pretty thoroughly here on DG...depends on the forum, though, as some are slower than others.

So...I chose 'none of the above', in this case.(Ü)

Once I found DG I gave up on books -- they're usually outdated; DG is always current and up-to-the-minute. Oh, need I mention all the wonderful gardening vendors I've discovered through DG (most of them word-of-mouth via the forums)!?! And then, there's the Garden Watchdog! I'm now able to order top-notch nursery stock and gardening supplies thanks to DG! Books and magazines can't hold a candle... (IMHO). (BTW, I know of a seemingly excellent gardening magazine that promotes inferior mail order nurseries.)

I chose DG! There is so much info here, that between the communities and the plant files, I usually find what I'm looking for. I really enjoy looking at pictures that other members post of their gardens, and it gives me ideas for my own container garden. Before DG, my favorite resource was my Sunset Western Garden Book, but the edition I have is about 10 years old now, and so of course, it doesn't have the newest cultivars.

And Dahlianut, you're too funny! But I do love your enthusiasm! I'm with you all the way! ☺

Really that is an unfair question and there should have been one more choice. All of the above, I use every source available to me and rely heavly on books and magazines. Dave's is the best source around as far as looking up stuff quick and having the rapour between other people but I love to have my books to look at and thumb through.. Seed catalogs are books to and I include them in my resources. I love Texas Gardening Magazine and so many of the others, my county extension agents can't be beat for all the stuff in our area, and the experience of my friends and family go a long way as well so as you see we should have had another choice.

But Dave's still rocks...lol

Dave's Garden is the best source. Living in the desert of the southwest where even a small mountain can make a difference in your very tight local and growing conditions, having access to local DGer's expertise is a huge plus.

AND another plus is "Other Members in your area" telling us where fellow DGer's are living... same microclimate, etc? We can use them as a resource to educate us on common garden experiences.

Dave's is # one but it needs more international membership to make this a truly global site. Many of the things we like to grow in our gardens are not native to the US, there is I'm sure a wealth of untapped knowledge out there that can only serve to make this site even better!

LOL mamajack I sometimes accidently blow up things because something seems like a good idea at the time... I dropped a coffee bean in the gas jet thingy in the stove and left it there cuz I thought it would melt. It didn't (oops) ... I thought that combining CLR and bleach would eat the lime scale better but it just made toxic fumes (oops)... I thought that running the shower to make steam would increase the humidity throughout the house but it just made it rain in the hall (oops). I guess these aren't 'explosions' per se but they do make my DH explosive.

Acids and bases, dahlianut, are not to be mixed. The stronger the worser. They react quickly (explosive) and produce chemicals that may be toxic. Buffers (weakly acidic or basic) are OK. Lime makes a fine basic buffer, and some acids will disolve it which is what CLR does. CLR is a mixture of several acids and some other stuff.

Of course, if you want to create a toxic explosion ... ;)

Pound for pound I believe Dave's is the best thing going. No need for $70 per hour plant doctors, its all right here. Folks just waiting to help, no pop-ups, no BS, just straight answers. I also really appreciate the fact that its one small fee per year and nothing more. No additional costs for upgrades or any of that. What an awesome place- I truly feel like I'm amonst many helpful people whenever I'm here. Thank you THANK YOU!!
