What did you do in the garden today?

[Sueby]

@Acre4Me, hows the little one doing?

Anybody know what this weed is?

It's not bittersweet is it? We have Oriental Bittersweet in CT - it's an awful, invasive vine that chokes out anything it comes in contact with & it is everywhere.

So I took mean girls peepers off, I didn't want to take them off so quick but we're going away for a bit & she can't drink out of any of the nipple waterers I have. The small fountain one I have won't hold enough water for all of them. So it's do or die for her, literally.

Hoping for a good soaking thunderstorm tonight so I don't have to water the garden.

I let my sage flower, I wonder if I shouldn't have?

My beans are starting to climb!

Dinner. Yum.

I don’t think so because it’s not a vine.

@Sueby - Pole beans looking great! Mine aren't trying to curve any yet - still straight, but looking taller every day.

Little chick isn't looking any better, unfortunately. We continue with vitamins and water and food. We won't make a decision yet - we try to get any ill/injured ones better first, but not sure if this one will improve or decline yet.

Ohhh, for some reason I thought you said vine, but you said weed!

@Acre4Me well I hope it gets a good nights sleep tonight & all that care kicks in!

I watered my garden that’s about all I did garden wise today. Fed the bunnies homegrown turnip greens and made DH a sandwich for lunch with fresh homegrown lettuce.

I pulled my first Turnips! YAY! roasted them on the grill. Sweet and tender. Sure makes a body feel good to produce their own....well, produce!

I haven’t checked my turnips but I snip some of the greens every day for the rabbits. I probably should check to see if they’re ready.

I only found 4 that were big enough but you know how it is when you're watching something grow....just waiting.

When I was a kid, I would take a salt shaker to the garden, pull a turnip, wipe the dirt off as best I could and chow down. I loved the things raw and still do although I have to admit, I do hose them off now. Being older means I don't like chewing on grit,

I still drink water from the hose
