Crazy weather we’ve had in Central Missouri this spring.
No frost at my place last night, but there’s another chance of it tonight.
Still pumping out the pond from all of the rain we got earlier in the week. I noticed this morning that it was just about empty so it ought to be done by the time I get home today. Need a couple days of sunshine and wind before I’ll be able to get back in there with Nanner.
Haven’t done any work in the garden since last Saturday, but it’s growing like crazy. Lettuce is now big enough to pick on, snap peas are about a foot high, kentucky wonder beans are sprouting, sweet corn has started to spike, and the best part - next to no weeds coming up. What few do make it through that thick layer of horse poo I just cut with a shovel and they’re done!
I still have quite a bit of free space out there but I haven’t decided what all I want to plant. Cilantro for sure, some dill, and maybe some odd varieties of salad greens, but that still will leave free space. What to do, what to do...
My corn is not co operating. Refusing to sprout. May have to order some different seeds. Hubby’s corn and beans are doing well as so are the potatoes.
We have green strawberries and some of the honey berries are almost ripe. We are anxious to see how they taste when ripe.
