unicornduke Got some early morning work done on my patch. I always go out there saying, I'll just look at it all, I won't do any work.
womp womp I weeded a bunch of rows and harvested things.
The main thing I try and do is just get a sense of where everything is. Is it flowering, does it have medium fruit, etc.
My plants are generally to the point where I can't use the cultivating tractor any more, things are getting too big and spreading out. I could use it on some rows probably but honestly, ugh. I also had been putting off hoeing in the rows, which I'm now regretting not doing. Weeds grew fast this week. But I worked through a bunch this morning, pulling the worst of it and I'll do some more tomorrow morning. The other thing I'll do at some point is grab the rototiller and run through the fall planted section. I harvested most of the last of it today. I've got one more section, which I'll harvest tomorrow and then rototill it all.
I harvested some zucchini and jalapeno peppers and I've got a million other peppers moving right along, which I'm very excited about. I also harvested the one dry variety of peas I grew.
I think I need to cut down on what I do. I knew that. But now is when it gets hard to keep things from going to seed. The grains are fine, they've survived the weeds and are much larger now. The rice didn't but I gave them a good weeding last time.
My garlic cured beautifully, now I need to clip it all. Good life choices me.
I've been working on the laser scarecrow all day after I got in from field stuff. Getting much closer quickly. I need to figure out layout before I start soldering everything together.
