What’s going on in your garden (2026)?

My husband used some very strong glue, stronger than cement, somebody worked on our wood floor told him that.
He needs to glue one top brick, the roses must have damage it, made it uneven.

Oh dear. That shape wrapped in black plastic looks rather sinister...

My worms seem to be enjoying their new home
I still need to seed cucumbers and pumpkin again.
First sorting the irrigation part though

The neighbour's pond liner?

The neighbour's pond liner?

Or is it the neighbor?

Today I did some weeding, whatever I can see popping up. It’s best to keep them in control because they spread otherwise.
Then I fertilized all of my blueberries, raspberries, and fruit trees. I girdled my Longan tree with wire, hopefully this will force it into blooming and fruit production.
Then I removed 5 ginger roots from the clay soil and relocated them in a container with looser soil. They don't spread as well with the clay soil. In the mean time, I did buy more ginger roots to root. I will plant them in the containers where the 2 dead mulberry trees are located.
Overall a really good day to garden. More fruit buds are coming.
Next is to soak some soybean, then pulverize them, then fermenting them out side. The trees are waking up.

No this is for my garden, somehow the microbes will be alive or something like that. I just copied some of my youtube videos that i watched last year, it seems to help my fruit trees.

I've not heard that one. But I can't watch YouTube much, being on a limited satellite BB connection.

At first glance my garlic appears to be not as happy as it was this time last year coming out of two weeks of no higher than 20°F/-6°C. Looking closer, they've all got new shoots coming out!

I fed them all today since there'll be a growth spurt with some warmer weather coming.

Predicted to rain a lot Sunday so I brought 2 of my 3 mulch piles down to the garden. They were ground up when I started them last fall and I've been turning them after it rains. They get really heavy now when they're wet.

You have been quiet.
Is everything OK? Or are you just too busy in the garden?

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

I've placed an order for the next lot of garlic. I just need to address the really poor soil quality first.

My veg plot has struggled this year big time.

And I need to try to graft a rose before the season is over. I have one that's gone totally wild, but it's friend is still the chameleon rose the other was, so I guess I've no reason not to try a graft. Otherwise I'll need to rip it out and find something new for the spot.
