Bleeding hearts, Solomon’s seal, and lilacs
I got sick a week and a half ago, so things got a little messy. We’re back on schedule, tho. Kale has been the hero this season. Couple broccoli doing what I ask. Slugs got all my first round peppers, so on my back foot there....

Thanks for the advice, everyone! My legacy blueberry plant is going strong, and my sunshine one isn’t far behind! I can’t wait to pick them, how will I know when they’re ready? I imagine they’ll need to darken in color a little bit and shed the little brown flower petal bits, right?
Me I just got done mine, snow and rain made it a little too wet to do fully, but I dealt with it....
Previous post for the reminder...
I had a customer come into my garden center today and ask for “those mini sweet peppers. you know, the ones grocery stores sell”. I have no idea what those peppers are. I suggested a sweet pimento, but they wanted the grocery store was selling....

Size of each bed is 4’x12’. All that’s missing is the 50/50 loam compost mix for the one. Other needs a tilling and the extension as well.
What’s your guys thoughts on a cold frame? I think it could be worth the investment, just for hardening off, but can they take some snow weight?
I’m going to move it lower to the ground in an effort to attract house finches. Otherwise the sparrows will take it and they are invasive....
I think I dropped seeds here many months ago....
I’m wanting to make a new lid for next time using smaller net pots. These larger ones have been punching through the lid during growth.
It seems the compost I used was more lively than anticipated. There's an earthworm crawling around in there....
Doing a crop walk for one of my clients this morning. Air was real still, goats were only a little bit desperate for grain. Good start to the day
2-4 centimeters my ass….
It's going to be a while, but I have high hopes for this one. I transplanted it a few days ago into some augmented Mel's mix soil, and just kept it moist before bringing it in....
