That’s all we got too Roger is one cabbage out of 12 we started none of them done well at all starting. I might try again starting some more they usually do well as late plants. We had a lot of coyotes back in the winter and a lot of farmers started hunting them. I think that’s why have an abundance of rabbits this year. Every night I go and lock the chickens up I see 5-8 just hanging out like it’s bunny land.Most of our veining stuff was real slow starting and ended up just wilting and dying. Last I looked the tomatoes were doing OK. Got a nice head of cabbage and will have sevceral Egg Plant if I can keep ahead of the rabbits. A short .22 rifle is going to be my traveling partner for a while.
Thanks ChrisYour garden is looking really nice.
Been there before Roger some years just aren’t too good. Beets, carrots, some corn, and some onions had to be planted twice. Carol put some “cd flashers” up around her chicken coop and areas around it. We’ve never had any problems with hawks like before. They still fly over much higher but just fly on by.I won't show you a photo of my garden. Bare ground with vine plant (1 out of 7) about 3' long and one bloom Onions and beets are under the grass & weeds some place. Deer came in a cleaned up on everything else. Forgot to replace the CD flashers. Tomatoes are about 3' tall but very few tomatoes setting. Some down on the ground have rotted green. This year has really sucked in more ways than one.
I’ve been noticing all the rain North of us going over you recently. We need it bad, a few showers today but not enough.Nice!!!
We are just now starting to get a few veggies trickle in. Couple cukes, pepper, squash, the 1/2 runners are in bloom, bur no bloom for our Blue lake beans.
We are getting too much rain now, I've lost 3 large tomato plants to water wilt. Fine one evening, next day just wilted and we keep getting rain so no recovery.
Man, I'd hate it if I couldn't grow green beans as I love them home canned. Store bought are ok, but home canned have twice the flavor. We still have a lot of home grown, so only planted 1/4 to 1/3rd what we usually would. Always can in jars, as frozen just don't cut it. We buy peas at store as we don't eat that much of them, usually only when we have tuna casserole.We cannot grow green bean or peas out her for some reason. Got to be the soil mile and a quarter South had good crops of beans and peas.
Most animals will only eat part of one to get the water during dry spells but they usually leave part of them.I went out to check on my few tomatos and they were gone, not sure if it was some 4 legged animal or the 2 legged kind. Our tomatos weren't doing very good as it was but there was about 6 I was watching grow and a hand full of grape type. Over by the corner of the fench I seen an unfamiliar track in the mud, Will get a better look at it today.
