I use something similar on the chickens. They pick red so changing the color to purple makes the wound no longer interesting.

Things are coming along in the garden. The pumpkin vine is absolutely ENORMOUS . I turned my back on it for a week and it crawled clean into my neighbors yard. I moved it back and apologized to the neighbor, but as a gardener herself she just laughed about it. Tomatoes are growing up a little...

We also didn't have a major hailstorm in my area--late hailstorms destroying everything has been one of my biggest growing issues lately. I also think the chicken poo may be part of it. The chickens made a big mountain of poo in one corner of their run, and it's aged into a massive pile over...

Harvest for today! Couldn't even pick all the cherries

Look at all the peas! This is the second picking and it's still flowering! Already used them in dinners and frozen some!

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone! You all are so kind to me. I have beans and lettuce growing in my garden that are just beautiful! I can't wait to see how they taste. Garden is really growing well, I'll try to take pictures here soon so everyone can see.

Yikes, stay safe!

Well, but if you'd not seen it and stepped on it, it might have been a real problem. I'm glad you were not bit!

Yikes! Glad you got away safe!

I contacted @baymule and she's fine! All the storms missed her, just a little side swipe of one earlier. <3

I heard the weather is crazy over there @baymule everything okay?

I do the same for my dogs. I cook all their food and it's usually chicken because it's cheap. Broth is done when you can pinch a bone and it crumples under your finger tips.

Thank you for sharing this! I'm going to give lettuce breeding a try this year, so I hope to copy your efforts.

I'm from Western Washington also! If you're interested in planting squash, pumpkin, cucumbers, etc. look for powdery mildew resistant varieties. It seems PM is awful in this part of the world, but using varieties resistant to it really helped me lick the problem!

I'm going to try this! I've gotten a few good carrots but it has been a long road.

That's amazing!

OMG @ducks4you I am dying laughing! I missed the reference too. I looked up "Audreys" and there's actually a tomato variety by that name. I thought you were just saying you kept trays of tomatoes that go crazy too! This is HILARIOUS and exactly what my husband is envisioning happening in my...

How did you fit a high tunnel under your deck?

Well, I got myself into a bit of trouble with my darling husband a couple of days ago. It went something like this: Husband: *stabbing finger vigorously at greenhouse* "What is that?!" Me: *Frantically trying to remember if there were any Super Secret Seed Orders lately* "What?!" Husband...

One of my dogs also has bad allergies. We make all their dog food now and it has genuinely seemed to help with one of the dog's health problems. Another is on an anti-cancer supplement for life after having a bout with it, so I just add it in while cooking to make sure I never forget it.
