Trimming parsley

Parsley, curly and flat-leaf, overflows its 72-cell plug sheet. Time to trim it back (again), so they still fit under the lights. To be unfussy and safe, a quick shear of only 2-3″ off the top literally takes a few … Read the rest

2022 right now...

Late June: Fresh veggies have arrived. Lots of different greens are ready to go. Snap peas, green onions and beets starting to size up. LOTS of rain and fairly cool weather for the last couple of weeks. The grass and other plants around the garden perimeter grew so fast, it overwhelmed the electric fence keeping the deer out.
