You and me both :) I wanted to get the drip system all installed, and the last seedlings planted, before the next hot spell. Getting close but...
I took a break from the garden and got out this quilt. It was made by my great grandmother in the 1930s. The pattern is called "Grandmother's...
@Sjoerd, I don't think there is a need to cover the cardboard, except to hide it. By itself, it prevents weeds, cools the soil a bit, keeps the...
Today I planted two more clumps of bush beans, that had germinated later than the others. Also the "replacement" snow peas. Then I installed...
