June 14, 2009: blooming and trimming
The first Day Lily was in bloom today.
I pulled vines and growth that I don't want out of the Day Lilies in the berms. I had a talk with them and told them, the vines that is, that they can grow on the rest of the berm but not in with the Day Lilies. The Ants and I have the same agreement. They stay outside and I don't burn them out and relocate them into the woods. That's working so far.
The slugs ate some of our squash so Joey is out to get them. Looks like Oatmeal makes them swell up and burst! Beer drowns them. She's going to try the Oatmeal first. Why waste good beer:) She planted some Watermellon in the vacant hills. We'll see how they do...
Mounds with manure compost...
