I was in the garden for a few minutes today and noticed about 95% of my Garlic is up. The Vetch is growing slow due to the low light conditions this time of year but I’m sure the roots are working overtime. We’re hoping the grandson comes by tomorrow to empty the heavy deck planters. The Lady and I both have stressed our shoulders on the smaller pots plus she has lot of pain in that worn out hip that will need help soon. The weather continues to be unreal nice for this area that normally never sees the sun but I’m sure we will be on water rationing next summer unless we get a few massive storms.
I think I got similar percentages for my garlic too. Glad you are getting some help for those heavy pots. Well I’ll add you to my prayer list for rain.
I am still thinking that the next time we get a stash of cash, it might be a good idea to build a cistern.
Course it has been a year, and hubby doesn’t have the above ground pool set up. That would hold 4000 gallons, and be enough for our entire garden during the dry spells I think.
The 10 gallons we get during the summer time is enough for my raised beds next to the patio.
I went out to feed the homeless cat and saw that the garlic that was planted 2-3 weeks ago is starting to peek out. It’s the first day I’ve seen the cat in several days since some Jehovah Witnesses scared it off. Don’t know what they did to it but hubby heard some noise and stepped outside to see the cat running off so proceeded to have a little come to Jesus meeting with them about it and sent them on down the road.
