What did you do in the garden today?

[SkyAJK]

Yesterday I found a bunch of lemongrass trying to survive in my garden bed with end part of their roots hanging on to the soil for dear life. The upper part were above the ground. Poor thing!

Today I will try...we are having rain on/off so far, I will try to pull it out and plant it somewhere else in the garden. So may of my plants are surviving on their own, I have abandon them to the nasty mother nature.

Anyone else ready for spring already?

No, because I need to get a few more things started, and then they need a few weeks/months to get some growth in. *eyes new onion seeds*

still searching out rocks for my new path

This is my goal for summer & fall. I wasn't sure of the shape I wanted, since my go-to spots in the garden have changed with chickens.

Anyone know of a method to clean winter squash seeds from the mat of stringy flesh?

I went to the feed store yesterday and they had seed potatoes and onions out for sale... It took all my willpower to NOT pick up some. Two weeks... Just 2 more weeks and THEN I will get some.

I’ve not done it myself before, but I found this:

Oh interesting, I have never tried rooting a cucumber plant in water!

My cucumber plant was just starting to set cucumbers when I took a branch. I saw roots after only 4 days. It's easier than I thought it would be........

I was, planted more lettuce, bought strawberries and temperature dropped close to freezing point. we'll have at least 10 cold days.

Is this real?

I can relate. We've had beautiful, warm weather this past week. Everything is budding out... And yet, we will be below freezing again next week with chance of snow.

February is my least favorite month, followed by July and August.
