What did you do in the garden today?

Took pictures

Way back in the day, my mom started my love of growing things by giving me a small strip of dirt between the house and sidewalk along with my "very own" hand trowel and flower seeds (easy, quick growing ones like marigold and zinnias). It worked on me. A couple decades later, it worked on my own children, and more recently my grandkids.

I hope your grandson's duck eggs hatch for him. LMK if you're going to do a hatch along so I can follow and root for the babies.
I don't have a incubator and the duck egg had been in the pool overnight so I just let him take it in the house. I wish I could get an incubator for hatching but I don't think I am there yet.
 
Ooh. Sounds like a treasure hunt. How many have you found and was it on purpose or did you just come across them?

The only sorta interesting stones around here are rose rocks. 😐

I love rose rocks. I have a few I found as a kid growing up back in Oklahoma. So far only one opal that I'm sure of, not very good quality. There's opal here, it's been recorded in geological reports at our property and on the BLM land that borders our property. I have yet to go prospecting to find any, but it's on my to-do list.
 
Home with sick child today. Had to go to the office so I popped into miners on the way home and got pre-mixed seed starting soil. That made it so I could quickly start seeds. Worth the price. Started another 144 cells. Tomatoes are started. Cleaned out the other greenhouse and now both are up and running in the lean-to.

Also while cleaning I found a bag of saffron bulbs that had gotten forgotten about. I tucked them into the soil in my corn bed. They had started shooting. Hopefully they make it. I'll move them to a permanent home later.
