Weeding and some harvest

these photos are from a few days. We’ve eaten a bunch of kale, a few squash and artichoke, some peas. We will need to split daisies and probably the cat mint this year. It’s out of control. I put flash tape out to discourage the robins from stealing all the berries. ? hopefully it helps. Tomatoes are green, beans are flowering, peppers are starting… Okra is failing. It’s been kinda rainy and cool, which I’m actually kind of thankful for. Onions and garlic will probably need harvesting in the next couple of weeks.ys.

Another tomato and pepper

We worked outside a bit today.

P planted the mystery tomato (nova?) next to the spa pad as an experiment. (will it thrive because of the held heat?)

I bought a jalapeno pepper that I hope we can use in salsa.

Yellow squash spotted!

okra flower!

I also trimmed back the blackberry and cat mint, fed the tomatoes, watered the grass and clover seeds and weeded.

work it

planted a sungold (left) and nova (right) in south a. I feel like it’s a little early, so I’ll hold off a week before I plant the other two. The cages look so optimistically huge.

Replanted some peas.

Weeded and planted lupines, allysum, marigolds, and nasturtium willy nilly in lower bed.

Churned and planted grass seed and those flowers in the new dirt below the raspberries. Pulled out stones to help with erosion elsewhere.

Repotted a couple more tomatoes and peppers and moved them outside.

It’s spruce tip time so p came out and harvested them

I pulled out kale to thin west c, and almost bolted radishes.

Progress!

After thwarting

The robins, I transplanted the tomatoes and peppers and moved most of them (and the okra) to the green house.

I planted a little bit of spinach in with the arygula

Seeded the new soil and part of the cur down blackberry

And basically moved furniture around and put things away. It’s not done, but it feels better, and took all damn day.

Weeeeeeds

We did a lot of work today. Weeding, transplanting, planting, p digging out the septic…

I transplanted the tomatoes and peppers with potting soil. They did perk up a little after I added better soil and fertilizer, hopefully this gets them back on track.

Planted squashes everywhere (mainly in the slope and lower bed). Moved barbeque rosemary and globe artichokes. Fertilized many things, blueberries, onion beds, lower garlic bed, Rhodies and hydrangea.

Here’s some progress

And some Randy lizards

Potting soil

I’m not happy with the way the tomato and pepper starts have done in the seed starter mix. Next year I should use potting soil only, or a mix. I repotted some today, and added potting soil to the rest.

Squash

Squash are going crazy, too early I worry.
