Thankfully you made it inside. Although summer rain is delightful if there is no lightning. We also had our first BLT today with fresh garden...
And I was guessing Foxglove. Too long since I've grown either Foxglove or Canterbury Bells.
I have found that Malabar spinach serves up a delicious salad. It lasts so much longer than regular spinach. I haven't eaten it cooked, but I'm...
Today. Picked some yellow squash and zucchini, some pickling cukes, one red tomato, watered selectively, and best of all, dug into one potato hill...
In my younger days, I could hear a Tomato Horn worm chomping on the tomato plant.
Refresher on Cucamelons. I found them to taste quite nice, sort of lemony, but they require a lot of space in order to get enough for eating. I...
I think I may tie a piece from a pantyhose leg over the top of the lettuce plant, leaving the top loose, so the seeds can fall into it. I left...
Mart, how long must we wait before eating veggies that have been sprayed with Betadine solution? Too bad I didn't read this before I took the pea...
This is totally news to me. I've been around 79 years and never heard that green tomatoes are toxic. The green on potatoes, yes. Regarding the...
Thus far, we're blessed with all our veggies. I began early on flicking Japanese beetles into a pail of soapy water. I'm sort of holding my breath...
I should have a photo of one of these critters from about 2012 or 2013. They used to frighten me to death, but I decided I love my tomatoes enough...
Sounds good, as I sip a fresh fruit smoothie. I too love microgreens. This year, the spinach bolted early, so I have kale, beet tops, and lettuce.
Gardening, while fun and entertaining, can be a pain if things don't grow as anticipated, thus, growingpains.
Dinu, I'm fascinated by your history. Shawchert, thank you for making us feel less alone. :) I have probably posted ages ago how I came to live...
I did next to nothing due to wet soil. The potatoes need weeding, but the two sided hoe would be holding on to the wet soil. Maybe tomorrow.
Sjoerd, Netty, I hope your day is as pleasant as mine is being. Son number three, his wife, mom in law and brother in law took me to breakfast....
Nettie, your day sounds quite pleasant. Marlingardener, so does your's.
That's quite a variety of beans, Sjoerd. I did nothing in the garden today. I'm resting from a long day yesterday which was spent on a bus ride...
That sounds unique, Donna. The wheelbarrow with flowers. I put some Marigolds in porch rail planters.
Pianolady, we have enough rainwater to last awhile. Warm air and damp rising is creating fog. No garden work due to wet ground. :(
