[Tilted Irish Kilt]

I enjoyed the Fall gardening plan for Winslow Maine, given by Johnny's Selected Seeds.
It gives a good 'heads up' for anticipating Fall planing.
It tool me a while but I found Winslow Maine is in Zone 4b: -25°F to -20°F (Winter Temps).
Now I only need to adjust for my zone, 6b.

Thanks for posting that info, TIK!

Sometimes I kick myself for not doing more Fall Plantings, but by the time I am done with the last jar of Canned ‘whatever’ I am SO READY for a break! Some years my ‘season’ runs 8 months. That’s more than enough time in the garden for me. ;)

HOWEVER, I HIGHLY encourage others that are younger than me to get the most out of every day/inch of their gardens! :)

They've got several calculators, charts and downloadable spreadsheets and with the calculators and spreadsheets, there a place to plug in your first or last frost date to set it up for your locale.

At 6b, you should be about the same as me. I'm in this area - 6b/7a.

Made it to the other end of the tunnel with grass/weed pulling.Took almost two hours, I didn't start until 8am - was supposed to be 6am but I was lazy. Kinda warm before I was done. Also need to kill the rest of the grass/weeds in the tunnel.

I had thought about "living pathways" but screw that. The entire tunnel will be mulched with something most of the year if not all the time. Now that all but the sides are pulled or short, I can use my black rubber mats and heavy black plastic to kill off the rest and cover with mulch as I go.

I'm trying to pull as much as I can out by the roots. Getting harder to do now that things are finally drying up.

Rearranged my controllers and have one I can put in the tunnel now that will read a temp sensor to get soil temp. Good to know for direct sowing sometimes.(98 frikkin degrees) Did everything I needed to do in the shed for that(with a fan on me) and will do the outdoors part when it's cooler.

I already have an outside air temp/humidity sensor. It says it's hot and humid LOL. Bit of a breeze today which helps.

Saw a Japanese Beetle today oh joy. I killed it but I doubt it was the only one I'll see.
