Despite gloomy forecasts, it was sunny and 60 today, so I was able to get out into the garden and some of that end-of-year work that’s been nagging. Emptied out the rain gauge, which had 3" in it— that’s about the last 8 or 10 days of rain. Yikes. Glad we’re not clo...

Despite the weather report saying it wouldn’t get below 45 last night, there is a hard frost out there this morning, still covering all the grass at 7:45 a.m. The parsley looks okay, but clearly I’m going to need to bring it in today. More seasonal warmth predicted for the rest of t...

I finally conceded my utter inability to concentrate because of the hideous amount of work in the garden that hasn’t been getting done (last real time in the garden was July 5; it’s been one 12-hour work day after another (with brief forays onto Folia to maintain my sanity!)
Since it ...

The Savory walk is functioning as I’d hoped, little whiffs of scent as you move through and work in there. Delightful. Seriously weeded it, with a spade, so that I really got down under the creeping phlox, creeping sedum, creeping jenny, and creeping charlie (really, that was not planned,...

06 Jun 2009Herbs update 3 3 Herb- Caraway Hardening Off, Herb- Chamomile, German Hardening Off, and Herb- Parsley, Italian Hardening OffThanks to verhandei for the excellent advice on getting herb seeds to propagate (saran wrap over the cells until they germinate.) It worked fantastically well. Everything sprouted, although I may have misidentified some things, surprise surprise. All are still fairly microscopic, but recogniza...12°C / 54°F

I’m so bored with the weather. It’s so cool still- dipping to 50 at night, low 60s and overcast all day. It’s slowing everything down. I was going to wait until the next sunny warm day, when all these sprouts that are just barely peeking through the soil would be more sure of...
