Would it work in a passive solar greenhouse? I could also grow it as an annual...

This may sound odd, but if you have the space set aside a section that you water half as much, if at all. From the moment the seeds go in the ground. I usually gave seeds in my dry garden plenty of water when I planted them, then nothing. Thrive or die. This was in an area with 12 inches of...

That's where a greenhouse comes in handy. I can scratch the gardening itch when there's snow on the ground.

I was more concerned about cold, but rain is something I'm still not used to thinking about. Thanks!

Planted more tomatoes, luffa, and cucumber seeds. Trying to decide if marjoram should go in the greenhouse, or outside.

Still alive. The mulch is below the graft and only partial. The soil is heavy clay, saturated by rain. About ten feet away the "water level" is less than six inches below the surface. None of the other trees (peaches, apricots, cherries, almonds, apples, plums and pears, mostly seedlings)...

I don't spray anything.

I had two plum trees go out the same way last summer. Perfectly fine until the rain started, then gone.

Down to 4 seedling almonds and 3 apricots from this year. A friend gave me more tomatoes!

I think my cherry tree is drowning from all the rain we've had. I'm not sure how to help it. I'm pretty sure that transplanting it now would kill it anyway.

Not garden precisely, but I gathered up dry grass and piled it in the broody coop. When I get a chance I'll put live grass in there, so it looks like a comfy place to nest. The broody and her chicks will go in the coop tonight, while the other broody will go in the broody box. Not much to do in...

Wow! Grew fast, and even bloomed!

I notice it's been a few days. Has the flagpole sprouted yet?

I am working on beeding plants that will outcompete the weeds and throw off the bugs.

I replanted last Saturday. The original seeds were remnants of a box (15 years old maybe? 1 pound box.) that grew just fine last year. But last year I wasn't using them for a cold tolerance test in saturated soil! 🤣 I replanted with a mix of the remaining seeds from this box and new purchased...

1 c coconut flour or ground coconut 6 c shredded coconut (not packed) 2 cubes butter Mix it all up until well blended, breaking up any lumps. Form logs (I usually just do this by squeezing in my hand) and put in the freezer to solidify. Cover with chocolate. I wish I could find unsweetened...

I'm doing grain cover crops for the chickens, let them harvest and then mow it all down in the spring.

I have done nothing in my garden today. Yet. At Winco I got seeds for homemade Mounds bars. Haven't planted them yet. 🙃

Nope. That's apparently after my time.

She's deciding what to post.
