    I grew borage last year and it was beautiful! Painted lady caterpillars like crazy though. I took some and raised them till release. So much frass. Way more than my monarchs. Very happy with the plants otherwise. Honey bees and bumblebees absolutely loved them! 🐝

    Didn't do anything in the garden today. Had problems with a cockerel. Heavy breathing and a cough. Never dealt with this sort of thing. He is separated now and seems improved but I don't know what is going on. Hoping all my chicks don't get sick now. 😞 (If anyone is good with diagnosis...

    I LOVE the clearance rack at lowes! Makes me sad we might not be able to do as much plant browsing and buying as normal this year. I just want to be in my happy place which is a well stocked greenhouse full of perennials and vegetables and herbs! 😭 Good thing I saved a lot of flats and trays...

    Where are you located? I started some artichokes from seed last year and mine haven't started coming up yet. I can see the foliage there still just hasn't started sprouting yet. I don't know what to expect.

    Does anyone have any advise for a first time potato plant? I bought a 5 lb bag of yukon gold seed potatoes. Should I plant them right in my garden? Or go the container route?
