winter clothes question
Comments (21)Gosh, Marda---you made me look around for them---some hats are on the flat railing on the way to the front door...some or all of the 5 mufflers are on the backs of chairs or the railing. Gloves are either on the seat of the PU or somewhere between the back door and the kitchen and so are the 3 different jackets I throw on when it's too chilly for my usual 2 shirts and a vest. I hate putting on a jacket----always wind up taking it off, unless I'm walking the dog---we do a circle---starting out into the wind and winding up on the last stretch back into the wind again, full-force. Like Sara, half of my gloves are missing and I have to wear gardening/work gloves to run errands, what-have-you. The things I never misplace are the good old hiking boots---they stay on 'til it hits the mid 80's again---feel nekkid without them. Hate it when I have to put on Girl-Shoes. Good to see you guys for a bit!!!...See MoreWhen to take off shade cloth for winter
Comments (6)It all depends on what your plants need for light levels. Remember your plants govern what you do with the greenhouse. Now with orchids, most want 2000 foot candles or less depending on what you have. With the other plants you will have to check the requirements. If you have a light meter, you can check you light levels. Anyone growing orchids should have a light meter. Measure your light, and remove if you need more light. On average, right now you probably could wait until Sept to remove it, but that all depends on what light levels are needed in your greenhouse. :-)...See MoreIs it time to pull broccoli plants out?
Comments (3)They may or may not survive but I suspect they won't do very well in your summer heat. (Get the name of that person at the garden center.) Broccoli often does produce more smaller shoots from a basal clump where a main crown has already been removed but usually during cooler weather. Regardless, it's time to use that space for more appropriate plants -- the warm-weather lovers. Time to sow your corn, put in a row of beans or -- something we can't quite do yet up here -- put out your tomatoes. Joe...See MoreTime to get out the winter coat
Comments (4)I had 55 this morning. It sure felt good after a week of 100+ with strong winds last week. My garden looked much happier this morning. We are supposed to be upper 80's and lower 90's with nights in the 60's for the next week. I have many tomatoes blooming so, hopefully, will have many set with the cooler weather. We, of course, could use more rain but the break in the heat will help reduce the water loss. Hopefully, the whole state will get a break with cooler weather this week. I have had a few ripe tomatoes and have several nearly ready. The hornworms are plentiful as always. I need to get some chickens again, they love them. Unfortunately, the coyotes love the chickens and we will have to make some coyote proof repairs on the chicken house and pen before I get more chickens. The corn is tasseled and silks are showing up so the cooler weather will be welcome there also....See More- 10 years ago
