June 20th - 25th, 2018


I got some of my garden stuff done after work today.
  • Cut down my Oat Field lol.










I really wish I had enough land to do this on a yearly basis.



Cut down my Snow Peas, such a waste, we never ate any except for that one batch I made a few weeks ago, I wont grow these again. Trying to keep up with my new strategy, the Snow Peas will be chopped and placed back in the bed for mulch.


Trimmed back the Spaghetti Squash before it eats the neighbor.


Trimmed a few stems and leaves off of a tomato plant that was yellowing, this will not go back into the bed, this heads straight to the firepit.




Two of my eggplants are loaded with aphids and ants, I did put out a terro bait but the ants are still coming, I ended up spraying the leaves with Neem Oil.
Sprayed the Zucchini plant with Bt.




Time to compost. I'm already on my way to having a great compost year.

  • Layering my Compost ingredients.









  • Topped with spent Rabbit bedding.


I need to top this with my Wood Ash from last weeks cook on the Pit.




  • Prickly Lettuce Compass Plant Lactuca serriola?






  • Hoping this is my Sunchoke.



  • I was going nuts trying to figure out what this was, I'm pretty sure its Crimson Clover that dropped its petals.














  • Finished the trellis for the Reliance Grapes. I really wanted something Low Profile so I came up with this. So far I am happy with how it looks.













  • Installed gutters on the underdecking.



  • Compost is kicking butt



  • Hardy Kiwis climbing nicely
