So Friday I got up before the sun to be awake enough for a half hour drive to pick up a new chicken. Her name is Cadbury and she laid a teal egg today! My phone is giving me a fit so I'll post a pic of her later

Just harvested my first ever crop of potatoes! They're tiny but the plants died cause I'm an idjit and used garden soil in a container. I'm just glad I got this many. Gonna try getting some to chit so I can start more before the good weather leaves.

We figured it out. Imperial moth :-)

It's fuzzy though. My DH thinks lunar moth caterpillar

Found this behemoth in my flower bed while picking up stick before we mowed. What the hell is it?!

My bales look drunk lol. They've sort of collapsed a bit and started leaning. My tomato plants have given lots of fruit it's just taking a while for them to ripen. Some I've had to ripen on the window sill. I never thought about using it to create an in-ground garden though. I laid chicken wire...

I'll have to wait till later to trim more leaves off, my plants are surrounded by bees at the moment I trimmed some off yesterday but I know it needs more. As for using bleach and not eating the skins I'd probably forget since I like the skin. It'll be a couple weeks till I can get my hands on...

My yellow crookneck squash has developed a fuzzy black mold that has claimed 3 squash before they were close to good picking size. How can I get rid of it organically. I cut and tossed (quite literally) they ones affected and a lot of blossoms have had to get snipped because of it too

Hehe thanks

The first thing that came to mind was super dirty but I've got a cleaner one. "What you lookin at? Ive seen you do worse."

@catjac1975 i have a whole thread actually! http://www.theeasygarden.com/threads/strawbale-gardens.18666/

Thanks! Organic fish fertilizer is my secret lol. And yesterday before going to a family function i noticed two summer squash finally!

@majorcatfish i sprained my wrist. Its fine now till i twist it wrong or sleep on it wrong again and ill be wearing my brace again. It generally happens 2-3 times a year and i sprain one of my ankles at least once a year.

I have a butt load of tomatoes now. At least 2-3 on all but one Black Seaman. My peppers are probably a bust since they stopped growing -sigh-. I have no idea when to harvest my beans so I'm kinda focusing on collecting seed from dry pods. The pole beans finally took off and has pretty...

I actually have never been able toget flowers except a fluke with some sweet alyssums. Hoping to get a cutting or two from my neighboor of her roses gone wild :-)

It would've cost me more to till and amend the soil for the amount i would've wanted.

I have to agree with the tinyness of possible flame from my extremely precious and hard won SBG. On a lighter note i has another tomato! Its a roma this time and a butt load of beans on the 'bush' beans (look like pole beans to my inexperienced eye, gotta love out crosses) and my squash...
