What did you do in your garden today?

[Beth_B]

I didn't even let myself go in to the perennial or veggie areas (yet), but still managed to spend $138 on annuals yesterday.
Got most of them planted, still have to do a couple of hanging baskets and the containers for the back deck.

Lots of petunias, cosmos (I just love those), trailing vinca, begonias, dahlias, marigolds, zinnias...

Pulled more creeping charlie. That's pretty much a daily task, just trying to keep up with it. My friend one block away has zero creeping charlie in her yard. I'm freaking inundated with it.

Picked the olives off the tree.
Ended up with a bit over two kilos.

Maybe this will help Beth

Yup @Tetters , that's pretty much what I do, just have to stay vigilant! I'm having a dead tree in my side yard cut down and shredded into a mulch pile next week; that should help.

Now that is fighting talk Beth, good on you!!

I planted vegetables in a mini greenhouse and potatoes in a straw.

cut a bunch of grass, pull a few weeds.

 

[marlingardener]

Harvested a few squash, decided to deadhead roses when the wind wasn't whipping them around, and pulled some bolted lettuce to give to the hens. I'm lazy today . . . .

OH, did half an hour of weeding this morning, it was just getting pleasantly hot.

I'm in the planning stage of adding one last native garden extension to my main garden. Unfortunately, it'll be in a mostly shady area and I don't currently have many shade plants, so I may have to buy some seed packets this Autumn.

I squished dog poop in my bare hand today ripping asian jasmine out. Like playdoh factory between my fingers kind of squished.

 

[Stink Bug]

Chopped some comfrey and some stinging nettle for some liquid fertilizer.

Super fertilizer @Stink Bug. As it ferments, it really stinks. You are going to love it

Yeah i know the neighbors hate me.
They call me Stinky.

 

[Beverly]

Do they really call you "Stinky"? I think that means they like you. The best fertilizers stink, uh, i think.
