I saw some mammals clouds around then. Too close!
That’s my plan as well. I have to get my beets in. I keep forgetting about them
Good plan. I’m sick of this crappy spring
There’s nothing like good composted manure to grow vegetables.
No pathogens either so that’s awesome and you can grow veggies right in it. This weather sure does suck
Only issue we've had in the past was letting it dry out: If you've ever paid attention to Cow Chips in the field, you know how they'll dry up on top, while being moist on the ground until they aren't, and getting them re-hydrated is very difficult so water just runs right through, other than that, anything we've planted grew like crazy!
I wasn’t necessarily talking about plant pathogens but human ones. Ecoli is a problem in cow poop and is quite prevalent actually. A lot of it depends on what the farmers feed them they are finding. I’ll bet the farm you get this from is on top of it if they are going that far to treat the manure.
Looks like tomorrow night should be warm enough to leave them out tonight might be the last night I have to move my plants in and out. I’m thrilled if that’s the case.
My tomatoes have been in for over a week. Peppers and cucumbers went in yesterday. And of course I just packed away all the freeze clothes
Yeah , screw it. I’m committed now. I’ve pretty much got everything that I’m going to grow in the ground now. What grows , grows, I’m not going to sweat it too much. Besides, our growing season here has extended well into late October for the last few years now, so there’s still time to get plenty of produce into the ground in early to mid summer.
I agree. My issue is I have so many tomatoes and flowers on both my tomato and pepper plants I don’t want the plant to abandon those that are there already. I think for me it’s wise to wait a few days plus I have some wind and rain coming in the next few days. The garage for a few more nights won’t hurt them, but annoying to me.
I suspect with all the rain you had poor pollination. I remember celebrating because the one day it was nice for half the day and then the entire rest of the day when my apple blossoms were opened. My 21 year old son even commented hey there are bees on your Apple blossoms. It looks like I have a good fruit set and I will need to thin but I think I just got lucky. Sorry it didn’t work out for you this way and I have been there as well. I hope you still get something.
I got around 2-3” inches this week. I haven’t been tracking where it came from. Been so cool and we a few of my seedling are likely getting root rot and do not look well. Only 5-6 out of 200 so not a major concern but of course it’s the ones I didn’t grow extra of. I have 4 ties the tomatoes I need but it’s not the dying because that’s the way it goes
