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.

If you grow a short season hybrid and plant the seeds, chances are good that you'll get something close to the parent. The vast majority of modern tomatoes don't out-cross (the result of a major genetic bottleneck) so most are self pollinated. Grow seeds from fruits you like (particularly the...

My plan is to eventually be able to plant everything in fall and let it come up on its own time in the spring. What can be self-seeding or perennialized will be.

Planted out a bunch of herbs. Watermelons are up. They do a pretty good job of hibernating until it's warm enough for them. One pumpkin survived the cold tolerance test and I marked it for seed. It has two sets of true leaves already. Moschatas are coming up. No corn yet, but since it was only...

Sure it will. Lots of holes dug, sticks broken up, he might even be able to fit a nap in there.

And again, if you told people you were eating Jeffrey Dahmer an explanation would be necessary.

I considered that, and if prices go down I still may in the future.

Or dread-dreaming.

"It’s easier to eat them when they're jerks."

It rained, and rained. I took one step into the main garden and started sinking. Nope. New greenhouse is up but not finished. Winecaps are coming up. Chickees pipping. Replanted moschatas and pumpkins just before the rain started. Chickens winter food storage. I need to replant beans and corn...
