not too bad considering it is before 9:30am for me... Moody Blues, Ride My Seesaw, not my favorite song of theirs but it may fit this day. gonna be busy. :)

jousting?

you will need fences if there are deer around. and chipmunks love raiding the seeds/seedlings. once they know you grow them... just a warning from experience.

cooler is so much easier when you're trying to get things done outside. :) hope some rains get to the UK soon! we had 4-8cm yesterday.

happy birthday :) enjoy dirt therapy as much as possible. say hi to the worms. :)

@SPedigrees no, the last bits of lawn left are around the outside edges of all the gardens and decorations and i rarely water anything that far away (including the lawn itself - we get enough rains and if we don't i let it go dormant).

congrats @Shades-of-Oregon i never mind seeing those again! :)

came across this looking for something else today - it's not solely related to beans, but still an interesting short read: https://seedsavers.org/hope-and-practice-robert-lobitz/

i did get the onions lifted yesterday and dried off a bit and then the dirt wiped off before putting into some boxes and brought into the garage. i'll need to rotate them at least once a day so they can properly cure without rotting - i don't have any place to hang them. they look so much...

are those edible pods or the seeds are edible or the decorative flowers sweet peas?

it's ramping up to the most crazy time of the bean season here and i'm glad for it because it has been a real challenge this year to even get to this point. 🤹‍♂️

at one time i was walking along a trail in the local park that is mostly forest and there were some wild roses growing along the edge with these beautiful big rose hips. so i picked some and brought them home and put them in a small bottle. not too long after that there were all sort of bugs...

we're used to leaving the hoses on the ground. i'm surprised we don't trip over them more often than we do. i always am looking where they are at since they can be moved. this year we have put some new lightweight flexible hoses on the front faucet for Mom to use since the long hose from the...

i would ask them what they think. :)

looks like an old chair/recliner... at least when i get out the 5x magnifier. :)

welcome to TEG from mid-Michigan. :)

looks like tomorrow will be a good day to get the onions harvested since there are rains in the forecast the next day and a bit. they look pretty good this year. i hope i can keep them that ways through this process. they are not as big of onions as i'd hoped for but they're not tiny either...

i've had it once and liked it, but i can't recall what it tasted like or why i liked it. yes, i know, that wasn't quite an answer to your comment. :)

i once had an automatic fish feeder. i made sure it was set up and tested before i went away for a few weeks and asked a friend to watch the tank to make sure it didn't get too low on water. came home to fish tank about half empty, the water was pea green and all the fish food was gone (it...

i've been worried that the bunny rampages in the fenced gardens meant that the network beans weren't going to produce anything but so far i have some seeds from four of the five beans picked (with more pods filled but still too green for me to want to pick them) and hope that the one that is...
