The only other thing I did on Sunday was make a rhubarb pie and cook a beef roast, while Herb vacuumed and did laundry.
Pie ready for the oven,
it was delicious.
Needless to say I don't have all the garden planted yet...One of the things i've never liked about gardening is "thinning" as the new seeds sprout and come up in overcrowded rows...Several years ago I started mixing carrot seed with sand and broadcasting them into a 4X8 rectangle, that works well and we harvest lots of nice big carrots, with no thinning...Other things, I like to have in rows...So last night I decided to make seed strips of chard, beets and arugula...Tissue paper cut into strips, Elmers glue and seeds.
Seed packets and 1st strip of beets.
Seed strips
I will get these planted today and hope it works...I have the ground ready for the carrot rectangle, which after I broadcast the seed, I have to cover it with mosquito netting to keep the quail from digging in it and rearranging the seeds!..Did I say, I love to garden? 😀...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
