Baymule’s 2019 Garden

had to look up hot water cornbread, fried. YUM!!

Cornmeal, boiling water to make a patty, fry. I like chopped onions in mine and a dash of salt. I squish them flat so the edges get crispy.

On the left is a row of Rosa Bianca eggplant. On the right is 2 rows of green Brussels sprouts with the ships planted with Ping Tung eggplant.

Two rows of purple Brussels sprouts

Three rows of cabbage.

Two rows of Lacinato kale

Some plants are doing better than others. It’s time to get some fish emulsion to help them along.

Very nice @baymule. Really like the garden space!

thanks, it's a work in progress. We are on sugar sand, like the beach without the ocean. I have some spectacular failures and am finally getting some spectacular success. I do grow some bodacious weeds. The garden is 100'x70'

Bodacious_Weeds would be a great TEG handle...

@baymule your garden has come a Long way since moving in. Your hard work is paying off.

I planted Maestro English peas and have been picking and eating them. They are so darn good! They are about at the end of their lifespan. But! The other variety I planted (the tall double row) is coming on like gangbusters. The pod is edible too, but I can't remember what variety it is. We'll be enjoying more English peas soon! Then when they fizzle out, I'll plant purple hull peas, the staple of the South.

While I pulled weeds by the wagon load and took them to the sheep, DH mowed the big patches.

Weeds are running amok in the garden, tall (mowed down now) luxurious growth, verdant and healthy.

I have Cornish Cross chicks on the porch, they got to GO! But I need to make them a place to go to....

I have so much to do and ALL of it is the most important and needs to be done first.

I'm in the same boat. It must be spring.
