Garden 2024!

@joel and @Neb and anyone else working with fruit trees. I was trying to organize my books today so I can get a list of the herbal remedies/medical books and came across this one I thought some of you might like. It’s from the 1940s but is interesting- more like a thick pamphlet than a book.

Rodale press.
I wonder if it still in print.

Was that one of the government info guide?

Looks familiar.

Spent some time yesterday in my poly- I've never had to weed in November before! The onions and garlic mostly. The strawberries are still going, and everything I cut back is shooting up again. Today is much cooler, but not frosty, with a touch of mist about.

Those are really lovely, he did a great job.

Do you get deep freezing temperatures there in the winters? If not, and if you want to make the soil in them a lot richer for planting stuff in the spring you can put a few earthworms into each half barrel. * That is if you have earthworms in your location.* They will work at prepping, aerating, creating and improving water and air circulation tunnels and enriching the soil over the winter months in preparation for their spring breeding.

However, if you do get deep freezes in winter don't bother putting earthworms in them, they will just die from the cold.

Planted my garlic today....rain coming in tomorrow they say....it was a battle i tell ya....everything went wrong that could....got a flat tire right after two passes with tiller...fixing it was like fighting fire....wanted to cut some wooden stakes with chainsaw...neither one would start....one fired up and tried....pulled till my back got tight and had to stop and rest....broke up heads and planted over 100 cloves...martin,romanian red and music.

like my buddy @App says...i swear....and i did...cussed a blue streak at saws and myself....lol..glad this afternoon is done and over with to be honest....and to think i had bright idea i was going to get a bunch of my seedling apple trees moved to garden....lol..yea right..universe had other plans for me....lol

its far easier to take from the wild....lol..working on that part too....i have 4 ounces of ramps to plant in next bit. i am getting some nice patches going for sure now...it takes years to get them going though...about 7 years minimum.
