Morning AM! We didn’t do all that great with the garden last year. Planted a lot of different stuff and got a paltry amount from each planting. We did well with lettuce, zucchini and some tomatoes, but the cucumbers died, and we had little luck with spinach. Enough for a few meals.

We’re still learning. Obviously!

Dittos that. I'm still in a quandary over squirrels and chipmunks. Can try caging but found out that they'll nibble on veggies for the water. So keep a bird feeder out for easy water and seeds in other areas for them to munch on. (But then, who wants to encourage more of them to breed, the little buggers.)

All of my cucumbers died, too! It was a very bad year for them. WOW, I had lots of Red Romaine and Bib Lettuce.
