After lunch I did some chores, windstorm cleanup, and only got one load of compost into the middle of the berry bed, not even a full load. Tried to rest up, but my teeth aching and being tired caught up to me. All I did after that was tie up a stake for a boysenberry.

Actually very tired right now. May hit the hay early...

Hubby totally rocked getting the east bed repaired. Looks so much better with the timbers :)

nice Vfem! :D

today i planted seeds i bought last year for blueberries, red/yellow/black raspberries, black berries and strawberries. i don't expect any berries from any of the plants this year so i'm hoping they will be ready by next year to produce or be good for multiplying in the yard.

That looks great Vfem! So what is the "saved" plant already enjoying the new digs? I can't tell from the pic.

Looks really nice! Can't wait to see what you plant in it. :D

I put in six 30 foot rows of potatoes today. My back is killing me! Should have been lifting weights or something to get ready for spring. :p It was really hot today, 85 degrees. As often happens here, we've skipped right over spring and have gone on to summer this year.

Everyone is planting and I'm so not there yet! hahaha I can't wait to get that done. I will get some seed in tomorrow, but not much.

That bed actually has shasta daisies (the green you see) and some cone flowers that are just starting to pop up. All the way at the end is a very small hydrangea I grew from a cutting last year. It has a long way to go still. :p

VFEM, can you let me know how you start your berry seeds, and how well they sprout and grow?

Hey Thistle, those spinach seeds that I planted (post 85) are sprouting!
Oddly enough there are about 7 or 8 sprouts up against one side in the container that didn't get mauled by the dog - and about 7 or 8 sprouts up against one side in the container that did. weird
