Jim,
Yep starting to get quite pleasant for the morning walks. Starting to get antsy for spring gardening what you got on the planning to do list garden wise this year?
Just waiting for a nursery to come online with the 2021 catalogue-seems that they're doing inventory and things are delayed. I have a trip there in the spring 800km round trip-with a trailer to be picking up trees for friends and the 120 4yr old blueberry bushes in 3 gallon pots. They don't ship the larger pots-only bare root stock. Now I need to find an enclosed trailer near me so I can do this drive one fine day when the shovel can be put into the ground time.
Besides that Bill it seems almost stressful thinking about doing the gardens when there's other priority irons in the fire.
More than likely I'll plant more to supplement the chickens this coming winter as they go through bags of feed like a hour glass.
I was thinking of using the 3 gallon pots I get from the blueberries to plant kale in, then when winter hits I can move them in doors then just put one at a time in the barn for them to ravage.
We'll do the lettuce and daily greens in the small garden by the house. Then it will a thought process what to put in the berry patch area and what to put in the main garden.
The rows in the berry patch are 160ft long (leaves a 20Ft buffer on the ends for mowing) so the pumpkins and squash will go in one of the end rows where they can run wild. (rows are 20ft apart)
Bill I'm a 11 o'clock start type guy-if I have to complete it by noon. I plan it, work it out different ways-then in the last hour I just do it.
