Now they are settling a little bit it seems and being a little more discerning about what seed they want to take with them.Aunt Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12934569629927045992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-6000407122843780842011-03-21T08:11:24.220-05:002011-03-21T08:11:24.220-05:00Sounds like the fence is quite a project.

As for sand in clay soil--our previous horticulture agent always said that's how they make concrete. I'm not sure if that is exact but I think he has a point. Clay. Sand. Neither have many nutrients.Gardener on Sherlock Streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11367115529793643362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-51251761162089507012011-03-21T07:35:34.717-05:002011-03-21T07:35:34.717-05:00I have lots of crocus coming up.

You're making good progress preparing everything for the new season...just make sure you don't hurt yourself in your enthusiasm (Yes, we all do it, I know...only too well!)<br /><br />It was good to see the full length of your veggie garden. It is a fair bit larger than I'd imagined from earlier photos. I hope your chickenwire does the job it's intended to do :)<br /><br />That looks like dead wood to me in the hole on your tree :( Holding thumbs for a happy outcome!!!<br /><br />Enjoy your week off!!! Hope the weather stays good ;)Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-68491448337892681612011-03-20T22:31:29.971-05:002011-03-20T22:31:29.971-05:00Wow!

You're getting a lot done, and sounds like you've had some nice weather this weekend.<br /><br />I remember reading somewhere recently that soil is made of three kinds of particles -- sand, silt and clay. So it probably wouldn't hurt to add some sand, along with some compost to your clay soil.<br /><br />I completely sympathize with you wanting to keep the bunnies out of your garden. I used to have problems with them too. They are so frustrating!Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-63371432477040899672011-03-20T22:21:29.072-05:002011-03-20T22:21:29.072-05:00What a lot of work y'all did.
