Morning! I grew some of those green beans last year too. I thought they were some pretty good eating.
We had a long weekend of wrestling, wedding and a family dinner. We have a week of rain and snow and such on tap and I hope to be able to get the horses out seeing as how the warm weekend was spent everywhere but here.
I seriously need some coffee.....

Good morning, Café. Thanks for the coffee, Berts.

Mornin', y'all!

That's some cool veg, TK. Wonder why the purple color fades out on cooking? We have some bell peppers that are black/purple when "green;" they turn a sort of loden green when cooked (they are red when ripe, and that color doesn't change). I seem to remember some speckled lima beans from my childhood that did the same thing.

Soggy and 60's here. TK, I'm not sure even your standing spoon coffee will get my engine running this morning, but thanks, it's good stuff!

planted a few of these in some mineral tubs........

but the true plan is to plant them a few weeks after the okra have germinated.......gonna do a little sister planting, but use okra, instead of corn.....

tell ya'll what, it makes it way easier for the kids to pick beans, when they can see them easier.......lol

okra will be going into the ground hopefully this weekend. I'm doing three different varieties.

burgundy okra

eagle pass okra

hill country heirloom red okra.

so far, we are shaped up to be covered with vegetable. if I can keep the worms off of them.

Looks great, TK!

 

[Treerooted]

Aw TK you're making me jealous! (And thanks for the coffee)

We're still a way back from putting anything in the ground yet. We did get some rhubarb transplanted from my parents, as well as some asparagus and horseradish...but those will be harvested in future years.

I'm hoping by July, I'll have some veggies to rival yours

But this being our first summer, I expect more challenges then successes in the garden

 

[Tumbling K]

I'll have to get a few current pics of the the planter boxes going full swing.......

 

[Treerooted]

Yes, please do!

Good Morning, Café

It is a wet and dark and wet morning here, did I say wet yet?
It should stop raining for the most part by mid-day, only one more inch or so till we are done.
I had 2.75 inches in the rain gauges at sundown last night.
I hope that all are OK and nobody has to put waterwings on their chickens.
Coffee and Tea water are ready.
Have a good day!
Scott
