Good morning gardeners. @Wee Farmer Sarah. @Acre4Me my peppers didn't germinate well even as the temps warmed up and what did germinate isn't doing well. I had to get a few things at walmart today including a bag of dirt so I bought a plant. Temps will be in the 90s so I don't think what I transplanted will make it. I got the pool planted with grass seed and covered to keep chickens and birds out, then covered the groundcover with some bird netting so the chickens don't tear it up. I gave the shrubs some fertilizer today. I was reading about fertilizer and the article said fish fertilizer doesn't usually have as much sodium as some other commercial options. Our soil is salty so I'm giving that a try. I also mulched the shrubs with hay, that's all I have on hand and it works well. I'm off to do some laundry and house straightening, have a great day!
