I wore out today and took a nap. Then I did some weeding and watering. I ate some mulberries and some sour cherries.

Just the opposite for me. I used to breakout as a kid then something changed. I can run a weed Wacker through it and not breakout.

I used to buy Jimmy Dean sage then could not find it, then Purnell old folks original and now Bob Evans. It seems the stores cater to the pepper lovers.

DW had a 2:30 PT appointment. I went along and got some groceries while she had PT. Anymore I feel like I am shopping in Russia or some other foreign country. Shortages. 4 items on my list were not there. Got home and raised garage door and a big rat snake fell down. DW screamed. I had to...

I have always called this Irish moss. It is in bloom now. Liked it when I was a kid. People had it growing in flagstone rock retaining walls.

Sore muscles last night. I took a blue pill. Tylenol pm. :) Got my last seeds yesterday South Anna butternut squash from a different source to replace the ones that did not germinate. Need to finish mowing and mulch the garden.

A bit of a rant. I find it increasingly difficult to find a pork sausage that is not loaded with hot pepper. Always plenty of medium and hot. The original and mild are always sold out. I cannot eat hot spicey foods. I have fissures in my tongue that makes me feel the burn more than most people...

Turnips gone to seed.

I got some free Titan sunflower seeds with a order. I had to look them up. They can get 14 feet tall. I planted a few.

Should work. I used to spray gourd vines in the fall to keep them alive on frosty mornings.

On Sedges I have yellow nutsedge here. At the cabin I have Pennsylvania sedge. A better behaved sedge IMO. I found large patches of it in the woods where enough light got in. I considered it as a grass substitute. However by the time the building of the cabin was done I needed something in a...

My poor wording.:lau

Harvesting turnip seed today. Shoigoin variety. I use a 55 gallon plastic barrel and beat the seed stalks back and forth. All that are ready shatter. I stack the stalks on a tarp to do again when dry enough to shatter the rest. On hard to kill plants when all else fails I use Tordon...

Had a good time fishing with family Saturday. Got 3 chigger bites. Warmer temps have the plants taking off growing.

Spinach in my experience the bolting is triggered by day length. In my area it bolts the end of May no matter when it is planted. We do not have enough heat early to reliably get a crop. For me it does better as a fall crop. The shortening of day length prevents bolting.

Yes. Deer and cottontail rabbits also.

Yesterday I filled 4 tote tubs with water in preparation for moving my Guppies outdoors for the summer. Today I went and got hornwort floating plants for the tubs. Guppies and minnow tubs. I will move Guppies next week. Give the water awhile to get aged.

I will get to spend time this weekend with 2 Great Grandchildren. Two girls a 2-year-old and one going on 5.

Too much drama about the weather last night. Not one drop of rain and 20 MPH wind. Then I had dreams of bad weather. Now I will need to water some plants.

Strong storms to start around 8 pm. 70-80 MPH winds. Today I mowed early before it got hot. Did some weed control - removal. Reached 90. Battling poison Hemlock, poke weed, bull thistle, burdock and others. It never ends. Miss one and millions of seeds.
