Fifteen new arborvitae trees planted in prepared bed. This could have never been possible without Harry

@JSinMO oh wow, ripe tomatoes! Yay! Enjoy!
@Harry the cedars look good, do you usually water them much in the first year? Around here people say water them like crazy.

Re: Gardens 2023
Yes, water them util they are established. I have to mulch them still. I usually use wood chips and I’m waiting on a dump truck load. I may have to get out my chipper to get the ground covered and keep the weeds down. If I do that I’ll post some pics. Harry

Re: Gardens 2023
I had some potatoes that were ready so me and son dig them today.
I tilled the area and planted pumpkins. Hopefully they will come up and give us some jack o lanterns by Halloween! I was worried about that solar electric fence but so far I have seen no evidence of critters getting inside the wire. Son didn’t think it was very powerful he touched the fence in bare feet and it about knocked him on his behind!
Not a lot but they should be tasty! I tilled the area and planted pumpkins. Hopefully they will come up and give us some jack o lanterns by Halloween!

Re: Gardens 2023
I sure can’t complain about our garden production in a dry year. We’re still getting a veritable cornucopia!
I spent quite an enjoyable evening in the shop listening to the radio and hulling peas, snapping beans and so on.
I must be getting old, I’m perfectly content spending evenings like this. When I was younger I would have been bored to death and just wanting to get done so I could go run around!

Re: Gardens 2023
Great production Jeff!
Perhaps we are just getting more settled, not old

Re: Gardens 2023
Well the raccoons are after my sweet corn so I figured I should pick as much as I can. I would say that’s a fine haul for 3 short row.
Guess what’s for dinner! - Eugen
