Afternoon all. It’s hot and gross outside. Planning to yank the last tomato plant tomorrow morning and put in some Armenian cucumbers. It may be too hot to sprout already, but I’m going to try anyway. Still waiting to see if there’s any changes to our summer monsoon predictions, I’m hoping for...

G’morning all. We are headed into triple digits on the regular now. Watered the grass while it was still dark but cool and pleasant outside. After a quick trip to the dog park I put shade over the melons for the hottest part of the day. The beds I added all the coop bedding to are settling a...

I have zero weeds in the backyard, chickens are amazing!

Salt never did anything for me either, the weeds/grass/whatever just laughed and kept growing.

That’s a struggle! I hope the pain subsides quickly for you.

Woo hoo! Congratulations, I hope you feel much better!

G’morning all. I’m about 80 pages behind, too much to go back and catch up. We went on vacation so not much other than watering the garden today to make up for my time away, but even the melons in the pots made it through. We got away from the heat here in the valley and went up to the Grand...

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms!

Yeah, same has happened here. The bird ran behind something and I left when the crew started stalking it. It was a baby grackle, I hate those birds.

Thank you!

G’morning all. Been a busy week but I got out to water this morning and the xeriscape garden is happy! Plus the lemon tree is loaded with fruit and the bougainvillea is happy too. Elvis was my escort, called the girls over for bugs and such than ran from the water. Have a great day!

G’morning all. I’m so far behind again it’s not funny. I spent most of my week working on house chores, but I did get out to water this morning. Lots of stuff is blooming, the grass is filling in-I think it had a shock when we went from mid 70’s to mid 90’s overnight. Tomato plants are suffering...

went outside yesterday afternoon and we had a bee swarm in the yard around the biggest Arabian lilac, I would estimate at least 200 bees. I could hear the hum from about 20 feet away. Fortunately they moved on, we have a high risk of Africanization here. Other than that I picked the ripe...

X 2. Best investment ever

Hula hoes are good tools to have around.

Heads up folks https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-flu-summary.htm

WOW! Loads of blooms! I bet your place is going to smell amazing next week.

That’s definitely a problem for many of us lol. I’m prepping for summer also, just need to wait for the wind to die down in a couple days.

I like the net pots too.

Agreed, the milk jugs don’t last long in the sun but I have used them as a cloche as well.
