I’m feeling pretty sore today after planting 11 trees yesterday at the cabin. The week has been cold, glooming, and rainy. Moderately productive. I started a tray of peas for their micro greens. Basically you grow some seeds very densely until the first set of true leaves appear. Then you harvest the stems. The resulting microgreens are loaded with flavor and nutrients.
Peas day 3
Peas day 7
Peas Day 10
In 4 days, they should be twice as tall and I will harvest them.
Tree Planted with Landscaping Fabric
Bare Root Trees
I planted multiples of walnut, hickory, pecan, and chestnut.
Straw Bales
I have 10 straw bales I will use for ‘straw bales gardening’.
Conditioning Straw Bale
I have started the conditioning process which starts composting the straw bale. The conditioning process involves watering the bales and adding nutrients. I also used a compost innoculant to help start things out.
Grapes on Trellis
I made a trellis for the grape plants.
