How's Your Weather

[SoOrbudgal]

Same here just pounding rain and cold, mts. getting dumped on with snow. Maybe those who can make a lean2 or hippie greenhouse might think of doing so in preparations?? For us it's a " essential " LOL

 

[GreenState]

Last patch of snow melting off my deck...yea!! finally brought the quick turn around coffee container clones out for a drink of sunshine (and a spritz of rain).

 

[SoOrbudgal]

LOL i am using those also for 3 auto flower not in bloom yet just 4wks old but they love the small cont. so far as we get deep into flower maybe a issue but it's a fun grow.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Oh forgot to say we've gone back to cooler temps here and sputtering of rain. Next couple days will be cold.

 

[GreenState]

SoOrbudgal I do like the portability of the containers! Kinda fun growing small plants as well. Once they rooted these had 2 weeks of re-veg from budded cuttings and them flipped to 12/12. My little experiment
Supposed to warm up here a little bit this weekend, fingers crossed. Stay safe

We had the odd weather today... stopped raining this morning about 7am so I went out to finish working on that Garden Way tiller. Crystal blue clear sky... no gray clouds anywhere in site but within 15 minutes, I had to cover things up and the rain was coming from somewhere ... 🎼have you ever seen the rain coming down on a sunny day..🎼 yep, I have !!

So yesterday, these trees had to come down.... they passed away last year and witching then next year they will fall and always at an in opportune time. This is the work of an 18 year old grandson. Mine are only 2 and 4. Woke up hoping to be “restored” but this aging body still feels the aches. Looks like today will be a bit slower but I’m still goin out there

damn cleanup took as much energy as cutting and stacking

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Good for you having a Grandson come over and gain some muscle bulk LOL. That's what we tell ours he's just 15 looks like Olive Oil LOL tall and lean. My hubby does that also let's em die standing for couple years then cuts. You burn those scrapes from splitter? My hubby is rewiring the irrigation electric pump last couple days, working in his garage. Old wires are being replaced. We are suppose to have clear skies for all next week but who knows for sure. Sunshine today and 60s

Well, I enjoy smoking meats and cheeses and took up welding to build several smokers. Yes I save so many pieces of wood than break off and dry them in a 55 gallon barrel to use later. A few trees like this and it’s easy to fill. I am getting a few things done like your husband is doing but it can be overwhelming some days. I tire quickly after a few hours....boy oh boy.... I start singing “ tomorrow, tomorrow’

32 Celsius in Portugal- my plants outside are thriving 🤩 plants in my tent - have it a little too hot, good thing I use LED

 

[Farmall]

90F in my book and I hate that kind of heat. I can’t imagine your plants

 

[Farmall]

I’ve put out way too much energy for an old guy this entire week... thank goodness I can do it ... deer proof and done!

 

[CaptainWiese91]

Farmall Yesterday we had lot of wind too, the planta la love it. But if you had zero wind, of course they will get burned

 

[Farmall]

Nature’s fan 😉

For years I used the term deer resistant, it seemed no matter what they could defeat the proof part. I finally ended up doing something like what you have, fortunately I had a tractor with a post hole digger attachment back then.

 

[Farmall]

Well I’m hoping... as naive twenty yr olds when we moved in, we did some landscaping....hahaha. Now as old farts, we think a bit differently .... shocked I was actually able to dig 12 posts 2ft in the ground in 1 afternoon. The first 6” was nice, The sub-soil below was hard and an occasional small tree root made it take even longer. I have had several old tractors here but none with a post hole digger AND, I have always wanted a backhoe... too late now. Actually deer resistant would be almost nice

The neighborhood Muleys drop by to browse on bushes, flowers and the bird feeders almost every day in the front area. They stay out of the garden in the back of the property for some reason.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well all this week has been rainy, cool and very windy. I walked out to the greenhouse checked the girls all is well. Went to my veggie garden beans are up, tomatoes might be water logged. Some bugger chewed up my broccoli leaf and ate the tops off my giant sunflowers so gotta redo those LOL. I think we'll get another week of rain and they say temps are suppose to get warmer. Still waiting on 50f during night don't want too many low 40's.

 

[RagWeedDWC]

Had to drive out west for a week, chilly but beautiful. You can watch your dog run away for days..

This tree stump needed to go for years:

With the help of Weed Buddy, it's a wildflower garden this spring.
