Gardening

It was so beaut out tonight I grabbed all my seeds and headed for the garden.

  • small area of corn (about 3ft by 5ft)
  • block of october beans (3ft by 4ft)
  • block of soya beans (3ft by 4ft)
  • half a row of leeks (prolly about 8ft)
  • half a row of tomatoes (not the good ones since they all died grrr).. about 8ft i think.

Saturday or Sunday I’ll do my flat of orange bell peppers

fingers crossed we dont get any more frosts or snow and the blighters might survive…

Now I just need to keep my eye out for the bloody groundhog…

my 16ft row of potatoes hasnt popped up yet.. mmm.

lets also hope the deer stay out of the garden too… Now if joy would just let me get that franchi 20gauge shotgun… i could play some sporting clays and take care of the ground hog and deer…

I have 3 planter boxes to put on the deck which will have

  • parsley
  • spearmint
  • peppermint
  • basil
  • rosemary

we also have sugarsnap peas growing on the trellis of the deck

some watermelon out the front (hasnt popped up yet so I think that may be a loss).

I still have green beans and carrots to put in the ground but green beans will need support and thats some messing to do to get it to hold/stay up…

I also need to make more homemade yoghurt today

busy bsuy busy
