Hi there, its been a little time since my last post. My apologies, I have been busy, you know.
The seeds that I had planted about a week ago have all germinated (chard, kale, cilantro, turnips, lettuce, and collards) and are looking pretty good by now. The fastest germinating ones were definitely the turnips, lettuce, and arugula. I went out to water them yesterday and spent over 2 hours untangling the hose and getting wet while figuring out our overhead sprinkler system. *I am working on getting a donation from Baker Creek for some heirloom seeds to start a perennial herb garden over here. Oh, I love their seeds. *I got some worms over the weekend, and a girlfriend. Coincidence? I don't think so. Her name is Bethany and she helped me give our new worm friends a new home, and she helped me plant some radishes and beets. But back to the worms, we put half into the compost bin, and half I am going to use to start the vermicompost with. Poopy worm dirt will soon be the world's new gold. After peak oil, get ready for peak soil. Im not joking.
Im sure the part about worms and a new girlfriend, ina addition with finding the "worm" a new "home" could be interpreted as something dirty...or maybe thats just me...ha! just make sure u dont plant no "seeds"!.. if u know what i mean...ha! I can see it now...little jakemans running around and uncle Cheyne waving his cane and screaming at them about this and thats!!! OOOOOh the life...live it up jakeman...
