yep - life is tough and unfair sometimes ...

My weekend fun:

Saturday, turned, manured, and harrowed about half the garden (about 1/3 acre).

Sunday, poked in pea brush, planted peas at the base, then prepared beds and planted onion, parsnip, radish and cabbage. Prepared and planted seed veg bed with root veg from last year.

Pruned four beds of raspberry cane; top dressed raspberry, red currant and herb line.

Still to go: winter squash, beans, summer squash, carrots and beets.

Onward through the fog!

Wow, that's some garden you've got there - makes my 5 tomato plants seem kinda puny!

Wow, you have leaves out!

Most of our trees have not come in to leaf yet. This past winter knocked the stuffing out of everything!

put out rain barrel for spring and summer

Tell me about that...I have 2 old Jack Daniel barrels that I've already 'made' a few gallons of Jack from....how do you handle gathering & dispensing rain water for plants?

My garden has artificial lights and rain, and everything wrapped or has little numbers on it.

You have a nice looking garden.
