It dried up enough to get onto the garden with the tractor and tiller today. Might grow a patch of Martin gourds. Tilled up another acre or so that would sure be good for a hemp field someday.

Having a truckload of lime brought in and spread out. Buggy load of fertilizer... a bunch of fescue seed and a rented drill to sow it.

Yeah, almost spring and a sure way to get another dry hot summer is to plant fescue in the spring without irrigation.

I splurged and bought an Apple Multi-strain and a Cherry Multi-strain.

The kind that have multiple grafts.

I have a White Crab apple to pollinate the Gravenstein. The textbooks say the Gravenstein is triploid & needs 2 pollinators.

Some of the people at the store say that with a Fuji, a Winesap, and a Crap-apple for neighbors, the gravenstein will get pollinated.

I want every single flower to turn into a fruit. I might plant the multi-apple in the cluster with the Gravenstein, hoping the flowers will get a pollen overdose.

I'm sure I'll like the SM since squash is one of my staples, but I'll be making a trip to the nursery later this spring, so I can still pick up a butternut seedling if I want.

Last frost here seems pretty consistent around mid May, but I've planted cold crops way earlier. We've had crazy warm winters here the last few years, so I wouldn't be surprised if those dates keep getting pushed back.

Looking good. Didn't have much going on today, so I planted my broccoli and cauliflower and will do cabbage tomorrow. There's a place in town where I can get as much free compost as I want, so I've been doing a few trips each week, which has been a lifesaver money wise. Mixed with some coco or promix, perlite and charged with a diluted mix of Neptunes Harvest, it makes a killer seedling soil.

Crazy warm here too all winter then boom !!! snow in mid May ?
Been on this property 25 years , hailed enough years past to cover with white but not measurable snow this late.

Makes that job of pushing planting dates around a bit more difficult, pretty soon it will be anybody's guess with these wild climate anomalies popping up from time to time

temps were down into the mid 20s a few nights here last week
put a bit of frost on the broc in container and cauli in the ground but not worried as will be warming up to 60F day 40F at night


The buttercrunch lettuce has done well in the past colder temps and should be fine. (knocks wood)

Good luck with your gardens

I was feeling unmotivated lately but now my family is having trouble finding seeds or seedlings because of the pandemic, so my motivation is back and i'll be providing them with seedlings.

All of my vegetable and fruit seed collecting is coming in handy right about now....

 

[Capra ibex]

I'm planting- Romanesco broccoli, Waltham broccoli, Green cauliflower, Snowball cauliflower.
Also- multiple types of lettuce, multiple type of onions, some sweet peas and some carrots.... probably some other small things too.
I tried growing my first 2 varieties of pumpkins this year and one of them is huge, not huge pumpkins just huge vines so far with a few half formed pumpkins.
I think i need to see about training the vine up onto something to save space.

 

[St. Phatty]

i'm gonna keep it simple and plant Potatoes.

i can never bring myself to cut up the ones that start growing in the bag.
