I'm headed out after breakfast to get my garden in! It's been warm enough, but this is the first day I've had off of work that it isn't raining. I mean... it's always sunny and gorgeous on days I have to work. Today is overcast, but it will do. It takes me a bit longer to get things in, because as I set out my rows, I also set up the drip watering system.
Half of my garden will be going in as seeds... corn, beans, some of the squash, carrots, parsnips, potatoes. I bought tomato and pepper seedlings though.
I managed to control myself when it came to tomatoes this year. I'm only doing two rows as opposed to the four that I've been doing. It's just me, so 14 plants is still way too many, but this is the first year I'll have less than 26.
The fruit trees in the back yard are behaving wonderfully this year. They were planted just before I bought the house 2 years ago. The first year, I got exactly one peach (which tasted amazing). Last year, the apple tree gave me about a dozen. This year, the apricots, peaches, and apples are just covered in little baby fruits. Even the cherry tree is contributing something this year!
I'm now trying to decide the best place to plant blueberries and a few other fruiting shrubberies.
