here's a few pictures of todays activates I uncovered the parsley, piled up some of the leaves in the garden, set a fence line and planted snap peas.And a picture of my daffadils that haven't even bloomed yet,I've never worked in the garden before that has happened. This is the first year that I was able to do that!

realy great pictures ya'll, grass is starting to green up here a bit too, nothing drastic yet though, was thinking about going out n catching some night crawlers tonight to sell to my son when he goes fishing, and he will more than likely watch me catch them rather than catch his own,


Never enough time to do things right but theres allways time to do it over...
If it aint broke dont fix it !!!
We dont plan to fail, instead, we fail to plan.
You can either wait in the sittin room, or sit in the waitin room.
There is no blood in my viens, its, its, its, its chlorophyl.
My thumb aint allways green !!!!!!!!!!!!!.
My thumb, my thumb, its turning green.

Those chives are looking good!Thanks for the picture update.

I've been busy planting some new grapevines that just came in for me.Still catching up on the pruning of the older vines too.Isn't it great to be able to get outside and truely enjoy some warmer weather?

I got my chance to work in the garden today and got a few things done. Most of my yard clean-up is done.Worked on the trellis system for my grapes. And I got a few of my garden veggies planted. Bruusel sprouts Onions both red and white Along side of the brussel sprouts And my shallots Oh yeah I also got my first sunburn of the season too.

Those kiwis look really nice! It's interesting to hear that you should prune them like grapes.I'll try and find a good reference too on that.See if we can compare notes then.We had a hard frost on all the car windows this morning.I couldn't see the vines by the time I got home tonight so more nail biting and 1 more night of frost called for to live with and I'll see whats left after that Confused

I'll be checking the grapes for awhile now. Some times it takes a few days to really see what did or didnt get damaged.
I messed up my rows of snap peas when I planted. I must have pushed one row over when covering the seed because the row is about 4" away from the fence now.I'll be coaching them over to it for the rest of the spring I think.
