Carrots popped up


only one row though which is really odd. using natural mulch has attracted  a shit ton of pill bugs and earwigs. After soil surface dries a bit ill hit it with some DE. cucumbers look awesome.

Beets look poor, tomatoes are sick and I'm seeing pill bugs chewing on stems of beans; business as usual

A better use for weeds

Another benefit to be all organic, chemical free is that when I weed for 20 minutes I can feed a big meal to Jesus y Moises

5 year old touchstone gold

Turns out 5 year old, poorly stored seeds are still viable - hmph!

Cucumbers are looking great, tendrils started and I need to get them trellised this weekend.

Tomatoes from Jon never really took off and are looking sick now, may pull 'em

Summer carrots

Planted (2) 5' rows of Nepoli carrots. Loosed beds, added compost, bone meal, powdered egg shells and thick layer of mulch to keep seeds wet.
