    Your 2024 Garden

    I’m curious about this too. Don’t you want earthworms and such to be able to crawl into it?

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I had that happen last year and did some of both. I thinned out some of the easier to harvest ones and left the rest be. A few of them made it through the winter, we’ll see what happens. IIRC onions are biennials, so they might go to seed…but I’ve not had much luck with onions there before so...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Thank you for posting this; I’ve been hesitating over putting my hot pepper seedlings into the ground this weekend, but it’s going to be cool and I have plenty of other stuff on my plate. Sounds like I’ll be putting that off and now I don’t feel bad about it! 😊

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Got the beans in today! 🎉 Also saw a load of aphids on my strawberry plants this morning - much earlier in the year than I usually see them. 😒 Sprayed them down with neem oil, hopefully that will help.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I moved all my volunteer lettuce and the bolting spinach etc. into one planter today. Now once I prep them I can finally use the rest for their intended purposes - beans and hot peppers!

    Can chickens move into a coop that has mice?

    I’d be worried about the mice eating your chickens’ food.

    What’s the deal with you chicken people??

    Yeah decaf is for when you want coffee/tea later in the day but don’t want to be bouncing off the walls until 2 AM. I just wish it didn’t taste so soapy. 😕

    Fertilize chickens egg through insemination

    I have not done this personally, but my understanding is you let the hen sit on some fake/infertile eggs for the usual span of time (or close to it), then sneak some day old babies under her at night. But success depends at least partially on the hen.

    Why are my 7 week old ducklings suddenly eating A LOT of grit?

    Grit is basically rocks that birds eat to grind up their food.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Got the components to make my bunny barrier today. I went to two different Home Depots because the tubing I tried to buy at the first one didn’t have a bar code on it and the guy at the register tried to sell it to me for $50 when the shelf said $15. 😒

    How much land to avoid bare ground

    Could you put a screen over it? (Wood frame, screen on the top, put it over the grass you want to preserve so they can nibble the bits that grow through but can’t destroy the roots?)

    Your 2024 Garden

    Need to get some fencing before I do much more planting. This is the first year in a while that I’ve planted anything near ground level and there’s a pair of adult rabbits that keep visiting…needless to say I don’t trust them.
