Rain

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

We got 4.5″ of rain yesterday. The garden beds look pretty good though, albeit a ton of weeding to be done.

Oats

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

On Sunday I planted one row of oats next to the bigger row of peas. I’m still searching for an Aperture Plugin to make it easier to export to WordPress…

Wheat

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Calculating how much wheat to sow in the two rows. The first is in the smaller of the two beds - the row is 61 sq ft. So, at (thinking out loud here…) 5 lbs per 1000 sq ft, this should get .3 lbs., or about 5 oz. Thinking this to much?

The second row is nearly 80 sq ft. So I’ll need 6.5 oz.

Sunflowers

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Well, I need to get back in the swing of this. Yesterday I pulled up all the old sunflower stalks from last year. I hope I can find someone to till that ground again, I plan to put Sweet Peas along a simple fence I want to put up there.
