What did you do in the garden today?
Frost has been impacting plants. Getting a good hard freeze tonight. I wasn't able to get the lettuce covered. Hopefully some makes it. Praying for lettuce to live through the night. I can feel that my stress is impacting my health. I need to take a staycation. Working on the yard is the best... -
What did you do in the garden today?
We got our first freeze. I'm away, camping in the mountains. But I'm ready to put up my hoops when I get home tomorrow. Panned up some color this weekend. Going to pan one last time tomorrow. -

I was on academic scholarship for OU to be a commercial meteorologist. I wound up in the trades here in California. Now I install meteorological equipment and program it for big PV solar plants. -
What did you do in the garden today?
I am from Blanchard. I was at home for the 1999 event. My dad was at work in Norman. We couldn't get a hold of my mom. My grandma drove us along the border of the storm as it passed through that big field in Norman. -

I placed an order yesterday! I'd had a cart sitting for over a month. All seeds. At this rate I'm going to need another binder. Yesterday before we left I went in the garden and looked at the bed I planted more lettuces in. A lot have sprouted. I'm excited to have a good winter garden going. -

What did you do in the garden today?
We camp 2500' lower. We ride up to the top. It is a 6 hour day of riding. Crazy thing is, it's only 15-20 miles of trail up there. There's some good climbs. 😊 We sleep in a camping trailer. We used to tent camp, then we had a baby. We camp in all seasons so tent camping would have been miserable. -
What did you do in the garden today?
Thank you. I'm sure it's going to be a good one. It snowed up top during the last storm so there will be good riding and lots of fun for the kids. Be safe! Praying everything holds up. -
What did you do in the garden today?
I got into my compost heap in the orchard. It's good stuff! I also rotated my spinning bin. One side is almost done, the other will need about 6 months since I put it in a few weeks ago. Planted more peas, pulled weeds, getting things ready to mulch the garlic beds, and started up the freeze... -
What did you do in the garden today?
I may do that for my pots. It's getting harder to not shoot the cat. I keep telling myself that it's a predator for the rats and mice.... But it's getting harder. If I catch it in a trap, I'm taking it to the shelter. The owner can go get it. The cat also poops on top of the chicken run hardware... -
What did you do in the garden today?
Yeah, I've seen that. I'm not putting plastic in the garden though. I use wire fence, I just have not gotten it untangled from the clover patch yet. 😊 -
What did you do in the garden today?
Numbers are in! 1765# of olives, 31.29 gallons of oil! Samples go to the lab this morning. 😁 As noted: Delicious, buttery and smooth. We picked very late this year so there was much more ripe olives than usual. -
What did you do in the garden today?
Yesterday I shook and pulled all of the leaves off of the peach trees so I could spray them with copper and neem. The three that had it bad this year got a really thorough treatment. My 2 gallon sprayer took a crap on me and was pumping the mix out through the pump assembly. So I had to pour my... -

We may pick more and brine but I don't really want to. -
