I up-potted 15 basil seedlings and the six crocosmia seedlings that sprouted from seeds I saved last fall. I don't need 15 basil plants but I'll put them somewhere. I don't like to waste the little sprouts if I can help it and they should make good companion plants for something. I decided to...

It's been a while since they batted 1000. Got 7 out of seven this morning by 9AM. Good girls!

I sprayed my brassica plants with BT yesterday evening. Cabbage worms or something similar have been eating bok choi plants like they were in an all you can eat buffet. They didn't touch the collard plants at all.

@jerryse , what do your native columbines look like? In western WA they look like this:

So was I. :lau

I'm confused!

Does anybody know what kind of pest is eating my potato vines? It started on one plant and now it's spreading. I couldn't find any worms or other insects. Maybe they only come out at night. LOL I sprayed them with BT (bacillus thuringiensis) because I had some mixed up for my brassica plants...

I have a lavender plant in my garden that was left by the previous owners of my home. It was pretty small and scraggly at first but has grown quite a bit in the last two years. I don't know what variety it is but it survived cold weather that killed my rosemary. My daikon bucket experiment...

6 this morning...

I cleaned up around my raised beds with the weed eater.

Not me. Something about eating eggs that were soaked in lime water just seems wrong. :sick

Half a dozen day today. All were solid and mostly clean.

Pinched pennies today at Fred Meyer. Got $136 worth of groceries for $70 after all the sale and coupon savings, and got gas for 70 cents off per gallon. Finished mowing my yard and my neighbor's yard when I got back. Might fire up the weedeater later on. Need to get the 8 or so okra plants I...

@Sally PB , I found this article, "Guide to Determining IBC Tote Thread Size". Maybe it'll help. https://www.jmesales.com/ibc-tote-thread-types/

Five today.

I don't have a freeze dryer but watching with interest.

And I'm probably included in that breach because of buying tickets for Tommy Emmanuel (guitar) and Jake Shimabukuro (ukelele) a few years ago.

You bet! Once you create accounts at the big 3 it's fairly easy to turn on/off the freeze. When I purchased my house a couple years ago I asked which agency they used, then turned the freeze off at that credit agency for a week or so.

If it were mine I would just leave it alone for now. It will most likely just fall off on its own after time.

I prefer a basic fried method if it's a young one, slow-braised if it's an older one.
