Cloudy -10°C / 14°FI must have been bored today because before I knew it, I had my garden planned out. There’s quite a change from last year. Most of the stuff that I had in my SFG’s are graduating to the potager, most notably the herbs. I was looking at companion plantings and realized that they cou...

Harvested the two melons that finally matured. They rolled right off the vine. The smaller one is about the size of a 12" softball and I had to pitch it because it looks as though some critter dug it’s claws into it over and over. The bigger one I’ll cut up in a day or two, it&...27°C / 80°F -

Sunny 25°C / 77°FI am very pleased with the yield I am getting from my Brandywine and Early Girl tomatoes. Currently I can pick around 3-4 tomatoes every 3 days or so. My Mr. Stripey doesn’t seem to want to give me much in the way of fruit. I picked one tomato (that isn’t all that stripey, but it i...

I see small green fruit developing. It’s official, I think every single one of my tomato plants is producing and I couldn’t be happier. Cannot wait until harvest time. I also have a ‘Mr. Stripey’ that I must have forgotten to add to my plantings. They also need a catego...Sunny 20°C / 68°F -

Unless of course, it’s the cantaloupe. I can’t remember which one I planted where. Hopefully the other one will sprout and I won’t have to worry about it until they set fruit. In other news, my seed started tomatoes look sad. I don’t know if they are suffering from wil...Sunny 20°C / 68°F -

I went to find my cucumber, carrot & lettuce seeds only to discover that someone threw out my seed stash. I did have them in a plastic grocery bag, but apparently it looked too much like garbage to somebody, so I went to the hardware store to pick up some more. While I was there I also pick...Sunny 23°C / 73°F -

23°C / 74°FI swear to god I am totally OCD when it comes to gardening. I get and idea, and I can’t let go. After three days of hard labor (pulling and flipping sod, handpicking and disposing of grubs and june beetles – ugh, and spreading soil/manure/compost/peat/mulch), I am happy to report tha...
