What did you do in the garden today?

[Wee Farmer Sarah]

Taking it a little easier today. I plan on finishing off the weed whacking in the front yard after an early shopping run for groceries and mulch. We had a little thunderstorm around 4 am this morning. Yay! No need to water today. There’s more asparagus to pick now. Have a great day.

We have those too, and they usually chew on my finishing potatoes, so I can't leave them to store underground.

The last time I planted potatoes I used grow bags. they did great and it was so much easier than digging them up.

I am disappointed more then 2 romaine has not sprouted, I may have to resort to picking up starts.

Voles destroyed my little potato patch because I tried an experiment planting the potatoes last October to see what happened.

Only 2 or 3 came up out of 18 that I planted. I dug one of the potatoes up in February and about 3/4 of it had been eaten, so I'm sure the voles ate the rest of them. I need to plant something else in that bed I guess.

They love all roots

It's raining so hard this morning that the water is literally spraying from the downspouts... I really hope the trench we dug by the corn patch prevents a complete washout....

Sunshine finally. Ready to go out and enjoy sunshine and gardening. It should be almost dried off.

I took a bowl and scissors out to the garden planning to pick the big leaves from all my leaf lettuce plants. The bowl was packed full after only 10 plants, and there are still another 18 leaf lettuce plants to pick from. I'll be eating lots of lettuce!

My determinate potato tubers that I grew in grow bags were all near the top. It's like the bottom half was wasted, so on my next grow I will use less potting mix.
