Digging and Weeding
Apr. 3rd, 2026 07:33 pmDigging and weeding are a lot of work. I'm so glad I wore my mask, because my nose is stuffed up now and would have been much worse without it. I didn't get all the compost moved, but I dumped some around various plants and will work on it again in a few days. I'm pleased that so much of it is broken down. It is pretty much just the sticks that aren't. The worms are _huge_. Anyway, I pulled a bunch more weeds and cut back much of the shrubbery that we had removed earlier. There are a bunch of things sprouting that we don't want sprouting, so I need to work on that too. I'm dithering about whether or not I should plant okra seeds or just wait until I get the raised bed built. Of course, that could take a while. I'm just not sure. Maybe I should try to get some marigolds going, since they will be fine in pots either way. Also, it doesn't look like the chuchu made it, so I'll need to get another one at some point.
