Help Wanted
It is hard to find time to blog when my hundreds of infants need attention. They are too hot; they are too cold. They need to harden..whine whine whine. They need to watch the geese babies out there swimming-no complaints from them and they are younger than the plants.
So here is the update-zucchini, cucumber, patty pan squash,and brussel sprout seeds where all planted. None of them are in their original rows, because Mr. Greenjeans, an amoral almost master gardener broke into the garden late one night and planted squash all over the place, upsetting the carefully organized garden. There is a warrant for his arrest and his picture is posted in Agway. The chili plant is planted outside, with a drip hose coming through the bottom of the pot. It is rumored that the aforementioned Mr. Greenjeans is a drip installer by day.
Eggplant and Pepper plants were planted on May 5 after 2ish days of hardening..they seemed tough enough to take it, and broccoflower, cauliflower, broccoli, and herbs except basil. Lavender went into the herb garden, a special kind that deer hate. I overheard this conversation just the other day.
One deer to another:
"Hey family , look the grocery store is back across the creek."
" Oh yuck, they have the kind of lavender we hate..let's go to King Kullen instead."
So here all all the goodies, with lots of garlic in the first rectangle, to ward off all evil.
