Thread: In the Garden 2016

Score!!!!!!

I have been really wanting to buy a 3pt Cultivator for the Tractor I REALLY want corn to work out in the new plot, and these makes it easier

The King Kutter Row Cultivators run about $300 and I just could not see spending that for a tool I may or may not use that much

So looking on Craigslist yesterday I find a used KK Cultivator for way less then normal, these things just don't lose value often

Heading down to pick it up Thursday BoooooYahhhh

Corn is a crop I won't think about planting in my garden. The return for the space needed is not worth it.

I grew up on a farm and we still bought our sweetcorn......

You just don't get it,,, Glen ain't interested in "corn on the cob" rolled in sweet butter,,,, Glen plants corn to bring in the Venison ,,

This new tool is for widening the Kill'n Field.

I have seen a couple of his pictures and if the freezer is getting low all he has to do is open the window of his shop for a shot.....

The Boss won't let him take'm in the yard,,, the safest place in that State is his front yard.

I wonder what her favorite flower is? Maybe plant them in the front yard and let them come and chew them off?

Well I've got my first blooms on my Roma Tomatoes!



And my Rosemary didn't get killed out last winter so it's doing real well! I put a 2 foot framing square behind it so show how big it's grown this year.



Looks like it's about 21"'s tall at the 'peak'.

Finally starting to see things coming up in the garden, potatoes, snap peas, & chives have sprouted. The beans are about the only thing that haven't. Going to plant garlic in the fall.

So all good news so far

Looks like everything survived the cold snaps, never again before June 1st he says again hehehehe

The Bush Beans have sprouted as of Thursday
Shan's pumpkins are coming up

We are really weeded over in the new Row Plot, which honestly is the biggest reason I bought the Row Cultivator

Learning how to use it over the long weekend

Got is all mounted up and adjusted on the Kubota
I tried it out in the weeds behind the Polebarn since we are leveling that for my new Summer Project of a large Side-shed figured I couldn't hurt anything but the weeds




The Weeds Before:




During:




After one pass up and one pass back, pretty happy with the results in wet dirt, should be even better in drier dirt




I tried it out in the Plot after a bit of practice, turned over the area that we had not planted yet to get a feel for it.. We are supposed to have clear weather this week so I am hoping to get around the rows CAREFULLY !!! in the next few days..


To top off my weekend, the wife and I are out there and find several of our bags of trash dragged out into the edge of the woods, Hmmmmmm Dumb Bear...
So I spent a few hours picking up scattered trash and figuring out how to bear proof the Trash Bins, I really thought they had moved out of the area after last year...
