Farm journal 2010 2-4 to 2-5, Planting Potatos and Ground Cover
High 79.3 Low 50.3 Rain 0.95 Chill hours 0
The weather station's rain gauge seems to be working now. We had a heavy rains yesterday that was on a slant, and the lanai trays all got flooded. This might be the same system that is dumping a foot or more of snow in Washington.
On Thursday morning, I helped David clear the northern part of the vegetable garden. He tilled and began digging a troughs for potatoes.
On Thursday afternoon, I planted the rest of the blueberry ground covers, snow in summer in row 2 and dusty miller cirrus in row 1. Then I weeded and planted the silver falls in the center pomegranate I then prepared and seeded 2 trays of creeping thyme for the plums.
On Thursday evening, I cut up the GroMor red potatoes and extracted seeds from the cranberry hibiscus and roselle pods that I harvested, while watching MSNBC in the den.
On Friday, I planted almost 2 rows of potatoes. The first row has GroMor red + Walmart red. The second row has Walmart Russet. Then it started to rain. Inside, I cut up the Walmart Yucon Gold for the 3rd row.
