Captain’s log: April 28th 2019

April 28, 2019April 28, 2019 ~ M Ress ~ 3 Comments

It's been a bit of a week. Bit of two weeks really, the increase in temperature and sun has been a boon for the tomatoes and maybe not a boon for some other things. First the sun gold. It's huge! And it's still growing which is phenomenal! I'm not falling into last year's trap of … Continue reading Captain’s log: April 28th 2019

Captain’s log: April 8th 2019

There's a real difference between winter rain and spring rain. All the rain we've been having has been winter rain- but today's shower was a spring shower.

The back trash can got blown about 20 feet away from where it's supposed to be, and separated itself from it's lid. It's kinda hard impossible to photograph wind, but sad trash can … Continue reading Captain’s log: December 31st 2018

The rains have ceased- for now. Starting Tuesday we're going to have some more storms so I thought it was time to get more soil and get to work. I went to my local garden center to get my winter herbs and plants. Now that the wet season has begun its time to plan for … Continue reading Captain’s log: November 24th 2018 (getting ready for winter edition)
