    What did you do in the garden today?

    That would be a good lavender. Weather killed my rosemary too, so bought a small one to start over. My bok choy and choy sum is a bust. I think that spell of hot weather, or planting too late is making them all bolt before they get any size to them. Will try again in July for a fall crop.

    I am getting so worn out just reading about your day. Whew! I wonder if this would help my friends who have chronic back pain?

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Mine almost died this past winter, so I was able to trim off the dead branches and salvage some of it, but now it looks like a bonsai plant. Bought 3 English lavender, which is supposed to be more durable. So sad you cannot get them to survive.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I read about different species of lavender, and which does well here in our weather type. English, the one we get the essential oil from, and for culinary and aromatic uses, is the one. I found some at our local store, plus another variety. I grow and harvest the buds to flavor kombucha. One of...

    What did you do with your flock today?

    2 of the leghorn pullets had roosted in the apple tree this evening, and did not look very comfortable. I was going to let them stay, but decided not to let them start the habit. Moved them to Onyx's coop, but one came back out. I closed them in so they couldn't go back in the tree. I revamped...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I've been pregerminating my bean seeds, and have gradually planted them out. It's too cool yet to direct seed. Did the majority of them yesterday, and more popped by this morning, so got those out too. Harvested all the oregano this morning, and having DH dig out the huge patch of them so I can...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I have a bird bath, and make sure I float some sticks in it or put a rough rock or ceramic hydroponic balls for them to climb on in case they fall in. Makes me sad to find drowned bees. You can also just have shallow rock filled container, adding water to just below the level of the rocks.

    Oh, I guess according to your photo, the glads are blooming every which way. Mine seem to bloom toward the west side of the yard.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Phone year I just picked off the top bulbs, and shared them. Also, a neighbor used them as scallions. Amazon has a lot to choose from. Even saw a 75' one.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Got mine on Amazon. Probably will get another soon. In my head, I'm trying to design a soaker hose system. Do I go with emitters,(and all the different size tubing, etc.) or flat soaker hose with quick connect attachments?

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I am so over pocket hoses, fabric hoses, and so on. Today while preparing to water bean seeds, it exploded where I was holding it and I got soaked! For the same price, I recently bought a stainless steel hose. It is lightweight and should withstand pressure. Time will tell its durability. I...

    Surprised you didn't notice a smell before now.

    What did you do with your flock today?

    Won't be a pile for long. They are such great tractors, aren't they? Piles of anything don't ever last long around them. Raking leaves is futile.

    What did you do with your flock today?

    Looks like a fantastic supplement. UK has different products. Onyx laid an egg yesterday, and she is back to her old self. Mystery illness for sure.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Soaking bean seeds and will get them pre germinated before planting out. Weeding is always on the end of my 2 do list. Strung wires for the bush raspberries, cut off root suckered from fruit trees and pruned off some head whacking hat stealing branches from fruit trees. Replanting sunflowers...

    My roosters injured a hawk what do I do?

    After discovering and fighting coop mites since November, I have just cleaned out my coop, used a heat gun, and took apart walls. Sprayed the coop with permethrin. Will the spray have residual effects, or do I need to re treat, and when? I have searched everywhere to find the answer to no...
