I have been working the past two weeks and not been able to play with stuff at home. Today I got to see what the garden was up to. It has been going nuts.
I began work on the chicken run, so the gals can play outside without Papa chicken around. Should have that nailed down by the end of the week. Looked around the garden and yanked some weeds and saw all the dang volunteers and plants that need new homes. Freecycle got lost of postings for adoption of Marionberries, Dogwood tree starts, Crocomisia, Sedums, and some other thing I am now forgetting. The pumpkin starts, watermelon starts and broccoli and greens all got placed. I am keeping an eye on the carrots, lettuce and beans (from seed) while the tomato and peppers are getting a chance to build strength before getting placed in the beds. The chicks will get to eat whatever sprouts from the weavil infested bird seed I spread in a bare patch of ground that will be enclosed in a month. The girls do need to have lots of space to wander and explore. The O'Henry Peach tree was starting to have some leaf curl troubles, and as luck would have it, I still have a whole bottle of the now banned Sulfur spray solution, so that got applied. I had to keep the chicks away from that section of the garden while I had them out on the lawn this afternoon. Wonderful day with 76*f temps. clay Who will address the dang leaking power steering pump on Tuesday _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
