Finally began bed prep on the separated properties. Slow but started. Finishing the grow room video I started last week. This time with the positive stuff.
The weather has not cooperated this year. Not really a surprise. The grow room has had disasters and successes. It has only served to convince me that I must concentrate on developing a small greenhouse for propagation purposes.
We grow impatiens in our pond filter to improve the water quality. The impatiens help remove the nitrates from the pond water completing the nitrogen cycle. We also grow impatiens in pots and in beds but they never grow as well as they do in the filter. They grow insanely large and beautiful in the…
Just about ready to get more set out. I have a pepper problem I hope someone can help with.
This video will self destruct after a few days. Not the type of video I want to leave up long.

Starting the 2017 garden season. It is slow going but will pick up speed. So far we have peas and beets in the ground and a few broccoli seedlings to first test out the cold frame.
A simple install turns into a nightmare!
Had not planned on making a third video for this subject of beginning gardening but a few comments on the other two and prepping for this years garden brought to mind a couple more

Getting a bit of an early start this year. Had hoped to get Eggplant/aubergine but am out of seeds. Must order. Have many new ideas this year to try out.
2016 was not so good for us. Dreadful, Furchtbar, awful, Schwerig! Good riddance! Things are evening out in our lives and hopefully will be looking up soon. I have finally recovered well enough from my long illness that I can go back to work at least part time. More on that later. We have a…
I had many appointments last week and did not get much accomplished. Hopefully more to come.

Extremely overworked during the early part of the year. Mainly due to an inability to organize by the boss. Middle part of the year very ill due to the overwork…etc. Garden and self sufficiency efforts suffered greatly this year. Will not happen again! In spite of this I still managed some things. Preparing now for…
Finally chiming in on this longtime argument of people making money on Youtube.

But more specifically, they’re the larvae of the Black Soldier Fly, and they’re actually not THAT bad for your compost…unless you have a lot of them.
