Still no internet here, so I’ll be scarce. Had a few asparagus show up this morning. first of the year.

I ordered extra asparagus seeds to replace any attrition in my bed over winter. No asparagus here yet but I haven’t looked in a couple of days.
We miss you when you are gone.
Best brands/types of landscape fabric? No, I don’t have a scrap carpet supply and refuse to do newspapers that blow all over the yard. No, I don’t want mulch because I garden barefoot. Online reviews are all over the place from either one star or five stars with nothing in the middle on the same product so makes me wonder who is posting reviews and what their agenda is. Anyway, which brand do y’all recommend?
The main garden has been tilled and hopefully will get the side one done this weekend. Next week will be devoted to measuring and getting the landscape fabric down. We’re supposed to have some rain next week so that’s all good.
I’m getting antsy to put things in the ground so I may be slapped AGAIN by Mother Nature by getting them out too early. A&M says March 15 but this gal didn’t just fall off the turnip truck. Though I’m getting antsy and so are the seedlings. Thinking of making a garden center trip tomorrow to get that landscape fabric, stakes, wire, berries and whatnot.
I couldn’t find peanuts so planted a whole tray of very old ones Sunday so cross your fingers and toes for just a couple to germinate. If just one makes it, then that’s seeds for next year.
Hahahahahahaha!!! I have at least 4 peanuts coming up in a starter tray and from the looks of the soil more!!!! Ok, folks, this is proof that 15 year old peanuts will germinate, hahahahahaha!!! Yes, 15 years old. They’d been in the freezer which may have helped. I couldn’t throw them out because they were from some little seedlings kiddo brought home from pre-school in a styrofoam cup. We’d grow peanuts for market but these are special. Now that’s what you call true heirloom plants. Can’t get over this little miracle, lol.
