Spaced out the planters as much as I could. Definitely need to make the area much larger next year. Most of the cauliflower removed.

I've been digging up two wild flower plants and putting them in pots. Roots are very shallow, one has runners, also very shallow and weak. I won't be able to ID them once flowers are gone, so I've been moving them now. After care? Just water and shade? Then I have lots of mixed plants in...

Harvested and blanched 66 corn cobs! Two eaten, 1 in fridge for tomorrow. Rest in baggies in the freezer. There's still some left maturing and developing outside. =) Critters will get the leaves and stalks over the next few days.

Got 4 pots remixed and filled, then planted sunflower. Then put 2 pumpkin, 4 cuke, 9ish cauliflower and 4 watermelon seeds in the 2 cuke bins and 3 cauliflower bins. We'll see if anything grows. 94F today 🫠

Noticed brown stings in the corn. Then realized that many were ready to harvest or nibbled on! 🌽 About 66 of them in the fridge. More on the stalks or still going to be. They don't grow more, correct? So I'll start cutting stalks to feed the critters. And Google says they last 3 days in...

Dug up the wild Bergamot and potted it. Going to do the same to the patch of 30+ Soapwort, Saponaria officinalis next.

Saw a bunch of neat plants. Some I had to ID, others had tags.

Went back to the local nursery, guy wasn't there and it's wasn't sure on price, so didn't get anything. But found the candy lilies. Mine are more iris growing vs the potted and planted ones he had. Idk if i bought the blackberry or candy, I thought it was candy, but the growth habit is very...

Idk if this was posted here or not. It hated morning sun, now happy pretending to be a hosta. New, much larger pot, too. Looking great.

Cut flower filler plants. I IDed one, but idk about the other still.

2 are liking the move. 🫠

More gladiolus are getting ready to flower. Newer mix of wildflowers in this pot. Spreading them willy nilly equals few grew. Dumped 2 pounds last year, almost nothing grew that year. Some this year. Best in a container. Candy lily from nursery around the corner. phlox dh bought as bulbs...

I figured out exactly how. Even though the plants will root from vines, drowned in wet poo is not the answer to make new roots grow....🤦🏽‍♀️ I was worried the poo burned them, nope, just over saturated and rotted.... I can't find my sunflower seed packet, will have to order online and try...

Well...I killed lots of plants by topping with rabbit manure. Idk wtf, but that's the only difference. 😭🤦🏽‍♀️
