What did you do in the garden today?

The plant on the left is what I had my husband remove this weekend. It looks so much better. I will try to get a picture uploaded.

What was it? It looks like my crinum lilies.

What was it? It looks like my crinum lilies.

I don't know what it was. It only bloomed once in 17 years that we've lived here. It was a Lily of some kind.

I picked a few more tomatoes, a handful of tarragon then thinned the lettuce and mustard greens. I put the sprinkler on the big garden for about 30 minutes. After breakfast I made salsa and canned 12 half pint jars of it. I finally got around to halving and freezing the strawberries. I need to water the collards, strawberries and herbs tomorrow. I’ve canned two days in a row and my right knee is letting me know to take a break. Tomorrow is laundry day. Still no measurable rain in the forecast. Regarding oregano. I planted several clumps from my herb garden around my grapevines. I have 2 small lavender plants next to them. The oregano is very happy there and when I picked my unexpected grapes recently there was absolutely no bug, bird, or deer damage. I thought I would need to at least put bird netting around the grapes but at least it wasn’t needed this year.

This is so true! With squash too. I was going to pull them because the powdery mildew is bad, but they have like 5 new fruits on them.

I know, so sad to see the vine or stems die while the ends have baby squash, zucchini or cucumbers on them.

I noticed that the young bok choi plants are already starting to bolt. What the heck, I planted the seeds only 4 weeks ago. I saw a small slug snacking (say that 5 times really fast) on the stalk of a marigold plant.

Nothing in the garden today.

No rain so far this month. Rain predicted Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. We need some rain, but I hope it is not too much. DW was grumpy and I had stuff to do outside. No need for me to be involved.

I watered today, thank goodness for @WthrLadys idea to use the bracelet or I would have left the water running all night. Again. I'm too old, out of sight, out of mind these days.

I despise oregano.

My sage is finally done. Took 2 days in the dehydrator. But that pint should last me a while.

Ohh, I came here to say we have been completely invaded by bindweed this year! I've never seen it here before, but it's everywhere now. I've always had people jump on me when I post pics of my morning glory vines, this stuff is very different. Stinks!
