What did you do in the garden today?

Garden tour...

Kale and collard seedlings in the sun.

Garlic bed waiting until October to be replanted. I worked in a lot of chicken run compost and have been watering it down regularly to keep the soil moist.

An experiment. Three Roma tomatoes growing from seeds I planted directly in the garden. I'm letting them just wander along the ground. I think it can make the plants stronger because the above ground stems grow roots wherever they touch the soil.

The potato bed where I planted cucumber seeds. There's not much soil in the bed so I pulled it all over to one side and planted the seeds on top. I'll either fill it in with more dirt, or just lay boards on the slanted side to keep it from collapsing. I kind of created a trough where the seeds are planted so I can just fill it up when watering.

Never-watered leaf lettuce. I think it gets water by absorbing the morning dew.

Your garden is really awesome! I see your hard work has paid off!
 
Did a lot weeding the flowers that grow in front of my garden and cutting down the ones that were done for the year. My indeterminate tomatoes are at least 15 feet high and still growing on a raised cattle panel.. I have semi determinate tomatoes on another cattle panel across a two foot aisle between them. I decided to take the long vines from the indeterminate and put them up over the other cattle panel creating a low tomatoe tunnel. I guess it's from all this rain they are even taller than normal. Not sure if it will work or shade out the back panel. Also canned ten half pints of rhubarb BBQ sauce. Wasn't sure if I would like, but it's delicious!

Share the recipe please. Thank you
 
I have caught 5 toads. That is all. In my mind it is basically gardening but completely different and took place at midnight
