Picked up 3 Bluebird's full of grass clippings.
Mulched most of the rest of the garden.
(Monday 6/13 6:15 Herschel brought pickup truckload of grass clippings. YEAH!)
Weeded and watered.
Planted 12 more tomato plants, replanted pea skips and sweet tater skips.
Harvested 65 more lbs beautiful garlic total of 235 lbs. The Red Toch's are amazing!
I watered 1 and 4, and 3 and 6 thoroughly this morning.

I am still trying to arrange garlic themed garlic dinner to benefit Page Robbins.
Wednesday morning at 9am we have a tour of folks from Apple Grove Alzheimer's and Dementia Residence. Leader is Leigh Hendry
Monday tonight's goals:
Plant/fertilize/water peas where the garlic was in plot 3. One row in outside bed and one row in bed next to the asparagus and two rows in the middle.
Water the outside rows of all plots where the hoses don't reach well.
Water plots 2 and 4 by hand.
Always put or smother with grass any weeds you see.
Apply grass clippings mulch to the raised beds and around the sweet taters in plot 1 and outside row in plot 1.
Later this week:
Spray liquid MiracleGro on everything.
Apply nitrogen on everything. Fill empty Osmocote shaker bottles and shake over each plant about a spoonful per plant.
Run sprinklers on front 2 and back 2 plots MWF and middle plots TTS for 2 hours.
Thursday morning early 6:30 until 8:00AM dig/pull two rows of red potatoes and all remaining carrots and take to the Food Pantry.
Then plant crowder peas (2 rows each bed) in those empty places.
