What did you do in the garden today?

No gardening. It was nice out. 50'F, so I washed the Texas mud off all the house windows.
I made a long list of chores/repairs/things to do before it gets hot; worked on a woodworking project, got a loom ready for sale, vacuumed, mopped, but never got around to dusting.
I'm beat.
We're still two weeks from warming seed tray soil, and 3 from putting seeds in trays.
I do need to get around to picking up local's tomato seedlings orders.
 
I didn't do anything today. Tomorrow/next week, I plan to lop the heads off some weeds, or even pull them if the soil thaws enough. I also want to get the green house pots full of soil. Then they can start warming up in our string of sunny days to come.
 
I put a tool holder( pen and pencil holder) on the side of the pocket herb planter. I also put some decorative rocks in the little crevices of the stairstep bed and I'm going to get more of the decorative glass in it because I know that it will prevent the slugs and snails out of the bed.
 
So jealous you're getting tomatoes and cukes already, but definitely not jealous of having those fruit flies!!! So sorry you're having to deal with something so hard to eradicate.
My season is opposite of the mainland. I start my tomatoes in October and sometimes the seeds take a month to sprout.
 
Sifted out a wheelbarrow full of compost and mixed up enough potting mix for 20 five gallon pots. Will be planting my romaine, greens and herbs in these by my back door. I eat a lot of salads and like it close by instead of in my veggie garden.
I use a small size cement mixing tub for my lettuce, they are around 6 inches deep, 2 feet wide and 3 feet long. I can fit 12 mature lettuces in it. It's kind of thick, practically indestructible.
 
I have just got informed that one of the places in athens where I buy trees got their first trees. I plan to go to athens to do some things and definitely will get some trees. working on a pheasant aviary so no gardening. as soon as I finish I will mow some grass in my big garden area. I will dry it a bit for goats then I'll start preparing soil for gardening. last fall and beginning of winter we had no rain so grass came out late.
