Everything is coming up! Corn, zucchini, bush beans, carrots, radishes and I’m about to harvest my biggest artichoke yet! Only had to extract 39 snails this morning so I’m making a dent for sure. It’s a beautiful day in the garden.

It’s not actively raining 😄

27/11/2021

It’s been raining for weeks. It’s my fault, I bought a sprinkler.

We’ve had a couple weeks of rain and the garden has lover it.

The back yard. So much shade so the raised beds are everywhere that gets the most sun.

First carrots of the season, radish going to flower for seed collection and a volunteer tomato in my lettuce bed.

Many people have sent me the ad for the subpod in garden composting system. They’re nice (and $300!). They are also really big. I already heap compost and have a worm farm but I like the idea of adding compost right near my plants. So here is my experimental in bed compost system. Made from what I had on hand. The round one is in a new bed with tomato, zucchini, beans and cucumbers. The orange one is an established bed with radishes and carrots. 🤞🏻

Baby ‘chokes!

It’s a beautiful spring morning. So warm. I have a “pick a radish, plant a radish” system for cycling plant growth. I can’t eat half a beds production. At once and they don’t keep well. We have two or three a day in a salad and then they are always coming.

Good morning pretty Iris!

New garden tool and the garden is coming alive. I love this time of year.

And it’s on. Last season I collected more than 1200 of these hungry as****es from my garden. In 2 minutes this morning we start this years count with 17. 🐌

Cucumber, climbing beans and tomatoes coming up! My super fancy greenhouses are working a trick.

Little baby kale and lettuce popping! (Dwarf Blue Curled kale Paris Island Coss lettuce)

Super duper happy to have finally found my beloved Bleeding Heart (Dicentra Spectablis) plant in Australia. It loves the shade and has the most beautiful little heart flowers. It’s growing so fast! My Lisbon lemon is getting ready to bloom and some of my bush beans pushed up after our little rain storm. Springtime in the garden ☺️

Rainy day project. I ordered 40l tubs to use for container gardening. $4.50 ea from Big W. Then drain holes added with my drill 👍🏻

Built a little tomato trellis out of what was laying around. Got a handful of slivers. I was wearing gloves except for that one part where I wasn’t. And an example of a repurposed bakery box for seedlings.

In the mornings we wake and walk. Then I go to the back yard for some stretching and to check on the garden. It’s such a fun time of year in the garden with changes every day. My Alaska mix nasturtium bloomed this morning and it did not disappoint. The stevia I chopped back in the autumn has returned at the base of my crow. I am hopeful it’s going to be a great season. 🌿

It started with a few pots then two raised beds. Feels like it’s all really coming together. Yesterday I trimmed the low branches off the pine so it won’t catch my hair when I mow the lawn. 6 raised beds in this area (as it gets the most sun) my compost near the fence and my spare soil under the tarp. My trellis has held up well and this year I hope to see it covered in beans and cucumbers.
