What did you do in the garden today?

I watered the carrot patch and there are quite a few garlic shoots up

Been on my feet just about all day, cooking and cleaning up. Tired!

The next sunny day, I'm going to sit in the green house and soak up some solar energy.

This thread is lovely to read!
I’m preparing the ground where the vegetable garden will be. It was abandoned for quite some time so an awful lot of plants were growing there. I have to remove them all and prepare everything to cultivate everything I’d like. I still have a lot to do, but I’ll go little by little.

Watered and threw on the frost cover for the night. 35F is the forecasted low, and it's already pretty chilly out.

Other than that, ate too much pie, cooked too much food, then needed to fudge the rest of the day to recover enough to ... eat some more pie!!!!

Cleanup can wait until tomorrow, when I hope to wake up with a bit more energy and feeling less sick. Fingers crossed. Happy digesting and turkey comas everybody!

My husband cut back all the Asparagus. I put fertilizer on the Asparagus and sulfer acidifier on the Blueberry bushes yesterday. Need to cover the Asparagus to get ready for winter now.
Tuesday, I sprayed the peach trees with copper, and I spread Gypsum in the orchard. For the past several years I've been spreading Gypsum to break up the heavy deep clay. The orchard trees have been doing great so it must be working.

I am sorry you lost you Inky @NewBoots

Should I cover the garlic or walking onions I just planted the other day?

 

[pennyJo1960]

I added mulch to my onions have them in pots. May move them inside if it looks to freeze

I've grown lettuce great in the past. Shade certainly helps in the warm months, but it will eventually bolt still. This past season the rabbits got in and mowed down my lettuce. I was disappointed. They didn't touch zucchini in the next bed though. So next year I'll keep zucchini low and lettuce in a taller bed again where it grew well before. I try to keep rabbits out, but they continue to find ways in...

I believe rabbits didn't eat zucchini because they preferred lettuce. they do eat zucchini's, pumpkin's etc. leaves.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We're still sick here, so I'm sending food over for a back porch dish swap but just waving from a distance, lol.

when there is a will there's a way!
