Tomatoes, vegetable bed, bumble bee and wild flower seeds

May 02, 2022

Very slow start to veggies. Cover crop impeding germination?? Tomato transplants - a bit late and not all of them made it. A packet of wild flower seeds starts to germinate. Got these from Daniel. Very happy to see this big fat bubblebee out on the Nanking Cherry blossoms

Flowers, blue spruce mulch, newspapers, planting tomatoes

May 09, 2022

Centaureus Montana, just blooming now. Got this last fall from Elise. It's in the back garden, too. The start of crab apple tree blossoms. Spectacular. Alot of work these last couple of days. I covered large areas of the front garden with wet newspaper and mulch/branches from the blue spruces that fell. Around the Nanking Cherry, Spirea, and Asian lilac. Finished checking the drip system on west side. Need to make sure everything is watered. Planted five tomatoes in front west by door.

May snow, smothering weeds

May 23, 2022

Six inches of snow, heavy snow, broke branches and crushed plants. I covered the tomatoes and they emerged fine afterwards. I'm in a mad dash to finalize the drip system and do some serious newspaper and mulching. It's so satisfying! I got the wood chips for free from a woman up on Balsam and the newspaper is finally being used.
