What did you do in the garden today?

[Rick589]

BINGO

won’t go so far as to say we’re lawless here but we don’t live in a county that much cares what you do with critters. I assume the ‘dispatching’ is done under the cloak of darkness so to speak. It wouldn’t make much sense to limit relocation to 100 yards yet be ok with killing.

Could you make a stairstep planter for your strawberry plants. It might be a better idea

Or go vertical with hanging grow bags.

Screening more soil for DW's container recipe, water and fertilize my Hot Pepper seedlings, still 3 wks before outside planting.

DS1 work is doing a seedling exchange. It seems like a neat idea

Strawberry tower? I bought the Greenleaf planters. Works well for me. I've finally replanted after 3 years. 60 plants, in 2 towers, which take up a 24" diameter circle each. Have them on my deck.

where did you get the tower?

I had forgotten about towers and I had to do a web search for stair step planters. I may invest in two greenleafs or green stalks. At least as a temporary solution.

I was going to put them in the ground, But after research, our alkaline soil would be constantly working against me.

Whew! I'm tired now just reading this impressive list of accomplishments. Beautiful yard and gardens.

Thank you. I didn't know I needed to read something like this this morning. I'm trying to keep a list of things I do to remind myself that I'm making real progress.

Good morning! coffees ready!
Well, I need a spot to seed the parsley, I may stick it in-between the blueberries. I want to get the Baker Creek Nagasaki Akari Kabu turnip seed in today. My plants are due today

I ordered them from Territorial Seed. the Anaheim chili and early girl I picked up at HD several weeks ago are doing great outside even though we have had cold nights and mornings.
I noticed the basil is popping up and also the cilantro.
I broke the rules on seeding the parsnip's and carrots, my hands were to swollen to do it right so,, ya,, I just kind'of''' lightly dropped it in. Its 2022 seed,, so if it comes up great and it is dont no big deal. I didnt want to toss out some "maybe" seed.

The corn I planted was Baker Creek's Art Verrell Pacific Northwest Sweet Corn. It will germinate in our cool springs. I do have some yellow corn from Territorial I want to plant but I am going to have to get VERY creative, I am running out of space. As I look out the window, Maybe I can seed some in-between the herbs on the far north side and in-between rows.


well, have a good day, lots to do.

where did you get the tower?

After looking at green stalks. I think "greenleaf" is the type of greenstalk. They have a shallower planting cup.
