What did you do in the garden today?

[Ponypoor]

Not so much the garden, but I was finally able to get someone in to mow my paddocks - get rid of the miserable goldenrod and thistle.

Before

After

No more places for foxes to hide!

I usually peel the sausage casing off my sausage before I fry them, but I found out that it is made of collagen, so I started to eat them. I ask copilot and it responded with: Yes, the casing on your Redondo's Portuguese sausage is made of collagen.

All I did in the garden was watering. I still need to water the grapes. I’ll do that tomorrow morning. Very little rain in the forecast but at least the temperatures are more comfortable and not sucking the moisture out of everything. I noticed a small potato plant this morning. I doubt it will produce anything. Today was some retail therapy with DD. A nice break for both of us. Tomorrow I’m hoping to mow the weeds in the front yard. That’s all.

I watered peppers and beans this morning, picked more cukes and got a good start on putting up the trellis for the fall cucumber plants.

I just bought 5 different peppers that each are 1,000,000+ SHU. My mouth is doomed next year

I have a lemon tree growing in a container, but I have to use a lot more sugar to make the lemon aide palatable, so I hardly make it. However, I do use it to season my soups and in cooking recipes that call for lemon.

I can't handle the sourness straight up.

I have one of those glass pitchers that has a cylinder in the center for infusion. I use it to make sun tea and cut small slices of lemon and fresh pineapple to put in the infusion cylinder. It is sooooooo good. I've also used other fruit like strawberry, peach, blackberries, etc...

Anyone have bees?

Scientists found the missing nutrients bees need — Colonies grew 15-fold | ScienceDaily https://share.google/5zmNptBz16BEqkCYS
In the new study, the research team succeeded in engineering the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce a precise mixture of six key sterols that bees need. This was then incorporated into diets fed to bee colonies during three-month feeding trials. These took place in enclosed glasshouses to ensure the bees only fed on the treatment diets.

I saw something about that yesterday. It put me in a bad mood. why can’t good people do things to help others? I am hoping that the city gets enough backlash that they stop or a GoFundMe is set up to pay any fines he gets
