    Your 2025 Garden

    I dug two rows of potatoes. I'll let them dry for a day or two, then clean them off and store them. I have 2 or 3 more rows to dig.

    Name 3 Things You Did Or Will Do Today

    I dug two rows of potatoes. I dug out the weeds around Sunny and Pip's graves. I planted New England Aster seeds over them. Fly high and free, beautiful ladies.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I dug two rows of potatoes today. I'll let them dry a bit so that the dirt brushes off. Then clean them off and store them. I have either 2 or 3 more rows to dig. I weeded out the area where I buried Sunny and Pip this last spring. I'd had a cinder block over their graves to dissuade any...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    My understanding is that bunny poop can go directly on garden beds, no composting needed. For farmers, working their butts off. For me, walking the dog and doing my workout. I have a second breakfast/pre-lunch so that I can keep working till noon, have a quick lunch, and then get back to work...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    The fog is lifting very slowly here this morning. After second breakfast, I'll go out and do something in the garden. There's so much to do, I can take my pick of chores. I actually NEED a frost to kill the buckwheat that self-sowed. Maybe this coming Thursday morning. I think I'll plant garlic...

    Sally's GF3 thread

    Two naps, didn't do much else. Freya did get her three walks. I did do my workout on the elliptical. I have to do the elliptical. No matter what. I have been doing it for 673 days in a row, not missed a day. No little jabs in the arms are going to make me miss a day now!

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I would not dig them up. I tried to transplant two crowns, both died. I would top off the bed with compost. I don't think it will hurt the asparagus to be deeper. They will be more protected from frost. If someone else knows more/differently/better, please speak up.

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    I used to do that. I was getting my regular prescription updated and the optometrist asked if I wanted to see what a "computer prescription" would do for me. My monitor was a roughly fingertip length away. He had me look through the (whatever that thing is called that you look through and they...
