Yep; staying warm. Plenty of firewood on hand, although, not in the variety I'd prefer. Maybe next year.... Garden doing well. 27°(F) for about an hour-and-a-half in the small hours of 23 Jan. That was our first frost, really light, no ice. Wife picked the few peas that were ready, just in case; needlessly, it turned out. Much warmer now but wet: Late night sprinkling of rain and then morning fog. Good day in which to prep a small space in which to transplant some collards that need some elbow room and to replace some volunteer deer's tongue seedlings with lettuce. glad you made it through the first blast ok, i sure hope this latest doesn't wind it's way down there. i miss the little fellers here, i.e. pea plants, they just seem to be rather cheerful plants to me. Garden first-timers this fall are bok choy, celery, broccoli raab (rappini), two additional varieties of carrots, and one of lettuce. Don't know what to expect from any of the first three. Will continue to succession plant them, possibly as late as April or May. if the raab is anything like the plant i had growing here that was leaves/stems and nothing else, it grew great, got to be as large as the neighboring soybean plants, but i had no idea what it was, and then the aphids decended upon it and i finally gave up and removed it. songbird |
