Yes, plenty of wet in the ground here in SWMO! Gonna at least frost tonight. Getting everything in the raised beds covered and bringing in the seedlings from our little porch hot house (just a wooden shelf with plastic wrap) just in case it gets even cooler. The thyme and a few of the perennial flowers we started from seed are up and I would hate to lose them now.
We have gotten no further on the hugelkultur bed because of the wet ground. Can’t get the logs out of the woods for it. Looking at putting 6 more 3’x4’ raised beds as well. I am trying to get away from ground level due to bad spinal issues and the disease and bug problems at ground level. I thank my lucky stars for my youngest son who is so helpful in getting the heavy lifting done.
The hail was heavy yesterday but did no plant damage. I was worried about that last night. I remember a saying about how the fears in the dark are lessened by the daylight....
Do you know if there was hail in Springfield?
