Keep fighting the good fight Adam!

I burnt off some steam with the post driver tonight. Maters are staked. Started thinning my corn a little too. I added some Epsom salt to my peppers before the rain the other night and they responded well. Good suggestion from @Ohiosam. My bush pickles are going nuts too. Had this extra trellis in the shed. I'll see if they'll creep up it.

Looks good Jesse. FYI if anyone tries the epson salts be careful, a little goes a long way

Planted some cucumbers here at the house, they've been going crazy. Put some ocra along one fence also with cukes in the front. Also tilled up a couple spots in the backyard for tomatoes, beans and pumpkins. Been slacking on the big garden at the farm lately, I'm sure it's full of weeds. Hope to make it there this week yet.

Operation reclaim the garden is underway. Got some weeding done and decided to install the wood trellises for the cucumbers, beans and peas to grow on. Lots more to do and hope to plant my last seedlings the next couple days. Several tomatoes and peppers are growing, tomato plants are huge!

I really never have understood the weeding thing. Some of the most fruitful gardens I’ve ever seen were “neglected”. Save your back, looking great!

LOL I can still hear my dad the one time I hid all the weeds under mowed grass we used between the rows Around the tomatoes there aren’t a lot. I’m thinking they are a little close to each other which has caused them to grow chest high (to you and I that is ). All that shade down below is keeping them at bay. Around the peppers and beans I think I should work the ground tho and get rid of the competition.

We have some weeding to do. At a minimum, some string trimming between the raised beds. Garden has really popped in the last two weeks.

 

[bowhunter1023]

Weeds will compete for nutrients and assist in depleting the soil quicker than it would if you weeded. That's one reason to weed, but for me is purely an OCD thing.

The first picking from the garden. Gonna go well with a beef roast tomorrow night.

And we were happy about a couple of cucumbers today. Nice haul @Bankfish

Does anyone else see faces on those potatoes?

Walked out back to my garden at my house and found a squatter. Pretty little fella. No fear of me. I should be able to keep him fed. Lol

Don’t act like you don’t see it. It can’t be unseen...

Piglet is on the bottom left. That’s the one that got my attention first. Then chucky was staring me down.

Ha! I’ve raised 7 baby rabbits in my garden thus far. I’ve even made them a straw nest they utilized. I removed the straw last week now that they’re bigger.
