What did you do in the garden today?

All are definitely possible.

Mulched the tomatoes and squash with grass clippings from the lawn.

Working on getting the rambling squash and watermelon planted in the HK mound. Need to build some soil hills. Found the first snake of the season when I moved a bag of leaves!

I do hope he stays in the HK so he doesn't get mowed. I used to have a lot of them, and would occasionally find them hanging out in the vinyl siding on the house, peeking out at me. ( I like snakes for the job they do. Don't have any poisonous ones here.) For some reason, we don't have as many since getting chickens. Wonder why???

So happy!!!!! DH found a rear tine rototiller yesterday. It was at the local hardware store they were renting it out but was brand new this spring. He brought it home last night and went to try it out and the first thing he hit was my row of dill!!!!! Told him to get out of my garden.
I got to run it through the rows of corn and boy is that tiller working up the soil. Going to be so much easier to get the weeding done between the rows.

Saw some green beans coming up. Most of the peas are up and the corn is starting to poke through too. Suppose to be in the 70's and 80's here this week that should get everything growing. Going to see about getting the tomatoes, cucumbers and other started plants out to the garden and going.

I can't let my hubby walk in the garden without direct supervision, let alone allow him to enter the garden with any kind of cutting or other kind of implement of destruction.

My mother used to get so mad at my dad after he mowed the yard. She'd plant something, a tree or bush, etc., and if she didn't put a "fence" around it, he'd promptly now it down. She'd be out there cussing, "Hank, $@#% you mowed down such-and-such!" And he'd always respond, "Well, I didn't see it!" I still chuckle when I think of it!

My brother does that I don't point it out.

Started cooking another pile of horse manure today. It is two small pickup loads. My first pile is two weeks old..soaked and turned yesterday. It is getting a bit warm here. All work needs to be done early in the morning or late in the afternoon.
