it was nice out this morning considering... the weather forecast said rain and windy, so i geared up for that to take the trash out. heard rain on the roof for a bit. went outside got the trash and recycle bins put out and it was kinda nice and it wasn't raining at that moment. maybe above...

@digitS' dealing with mostly clay is tough enough for me i'm not sure i'd enjoy messing around with a lot of rocks and gravel in the ground but we do have spots here or there where the gravel has escaped the pathways and i don't enjoy dealing with that either. i spend some time every garden...

ok, thank you! :) i'll stick by my original post wondering if the root system was malformed or influenced by where it was planted. that you can only tell by when you uproot it either at the end of the season or when you transplant it if you are going to try to bring it in for the winter. if...

it will be fun today to be able to pick through a bean patch as much as i can get done before starting to get it put up for the winter. i'm mostly interested to see how much of the Peregion rows finished up and are in good condition with how late it has been and the rains we've had...

hahaha! wow! that is sure some deadication!

on to a new garden today to put up, i'm so excited! well, ok, i'm mildly enthused but the happy part will be going through and picking any dry beans that remain for me to harvest that i've missed up to this point or have finished up since the last time i went through picking. since there are...

at least it wasn't frayed chicken!

ok, started by your husband, but what was the source of the seeds he used? :)

we don't know if the plants you put out were started by you from certain seeds or if they were plants you purchased? in my case i'd planted a bunch of plants that were grown from certain seeds that the plants were uniform in appearance when i put them in but i also did not dig the last foot of...

i had to go look up how long rabbits have been around, 40ish million years compared to us humans...

just imagine lugging those around all the time! so tyring!

sometimes you just gotta take a time-out for yourself. :)

i needed a nap and was able to get some dreaming in, it was a silly dream about Mom singing some song wrong all the time and we were laughing about it as i was trying to get her to sing it with the right lyrics. funny to me though even more is that it was nothing at all to do with the music i'm...

@digitS' are your gardens all put up for the winter or still in progress? i'm still a week or two from finishing... of course there's always something to do out there even if i'm mostly done.

it looks like two days on for garden chores and then a day or two off for rain which is fine with me as it gives me time to rest up, recover and shell out some beans to be ready for the next round.

i didn't even think there were chances of rain back in the forecast for today, but i did look before i went outside to putter around for a while. some clouds looked like they may drip and i wasn't too enthusiastic about what i was doing so that was enough for me.

:) congratulations!

it could be that the root system did not grow properly, got tangled together, there's an obstruction in the soil, or... sometimes things like this do happen. i've never had a place indoors where i could dig up such a plant and then root prune it and see if it could regrow - it may or may not...

@Blue-Jay The resistance to BCMV is nice but the plants looked like they were more succeptible to some other things this season, could be bacterial or fungal diseases, i'm not sure what they were but it didn't look like it made that much difference and the plants were productive so overall i'd...

added disease resistance and improved productivity. it should be marked somehow on the package if it is the new variety.
