Diana's Garden Threads

Viola - shows this thread plus all the past weekly garden threads.


Another nice weekend. Woke up early and did some shopping and got back before 9am. Yay me. Grabbed another bag of seed starting mix from Walmart just to try it. Looked at cell trays from Burpee and Jiffy(w/pellets) and they were all super thin so I passed on them. Going to grab some from Bootstrap Farmer but I've got enough to get started which I didn't get around to doing last weekend.

Got the mix moist and covered it so it's still moist and nice and even. Going to do the 60 of 72 cell tray. I cut the 72 cell tray up into 12 six packs last year but two of them got damaged so that leaves 10 six packs. I kind of like the extra room in the 1020 tray. Going to sow those 60 tonight. Six pack of this, six pack of that.

Last Sunday I got the F150 fired up and moved and got the ladder rigged up in the back to use as a crane. Also got sides put on the trailer for the upcoming big dump run.

Scheduled my week vacation for April 1-5, Mon-Fri so weather(and money) permitting, I should be able to get a lot done on the tunnel. We have March 29th off for Good Friday, plus the 2 weekends and 5 vacation days will give me 10 days off in a row. Day 10 will likely be rest/recover day.

Thanks for the links!

Sounds like a great plan for using your vacation days. I always had to take mine in the winter when I worked for Jung’s. It was just too insanely busy to be gone for even a day during the cash-earning Spring sales days that kept us afloat for the rest of the season. ;)
