What did you do in the garden today?

I hate raccoons. They could be your problem- very destructive.
We used to relocate now we (bang).
The only thing that put a dent in my voles/moles/mice and squirrels was my clowder (about 8 outside cats). They must not like the taste of them and drop on door step.
I put the dead vole on a plate w a small piece of salmon on the other! My bulbs are multiplying this year.

No snakes either which is VERY important to me

Luckily, coons only destroyed my corn patch so far, nothing else in the garden yet. Between mouse traps and mouse poison, I have mice under control. Vole is a completely different story! They don't like anything other than my garden plants! I had great help from neighbor's outdoor cats until they were declawed last year.

We’ve used this and it seems to work. Raccoons have never touched this. Just sprinkle in their holes. Replace after rain. We bought ours at Walmart.

Officially it got up to 91F today. Humidity was up to at least 87%. Too hot, too soon. This is New England after all. Lol!

So I got another hibiscus bloom from a mystery hibiscus we got for free last year. Unfortunately we did not know it was a hibiscus so we planted in a place I would not have if we had known. Still pretty though. Additionally we are building a second hoop coop next to one of our gardens for the chicks growing out in three brooders. There will be a third coop to follow. Hopefully this one will be finished by next week.

That looks great!

Thank you. The credit is all my husbands. I helped with our first hoop coop but he has been building this since Monday by himself in 90F temperatures. It is a real trooper.

Got rain today, still watered when I got home. Many rows of plants starting to creep upward.

I got the plant I started from seed for the bees planted, and the cherry tomatoes. I ran out of time and it was very windy, so I'll work on the rest tomorrow.

Lots and lots of plants to plant....
