Leaves are just starting to turn here (Michigan). Saw my doc yesterday and he has a hobby farm outside the city. this year he used Chicken Soup for the Soil on his garden and got spectacular results. His brother in law recommended it. I looked it up and will try it next year. I still have pepper plants - shishito and banana - producing and one tomato plant still viable.
Reminds me of the years I was obsessed by genealogy. Finding cousins was an absolute joy. One I loved deeply lived in Florida and we talked about New England autumns. So when the leaves began to fall, I ran into a forest and played madwoman catching the leaves as they fell and throwing them into a box, along with all the brightly colored berries, nuts, etc. that I could find. Then I shipped her the box so that we could share the season. Those memories will keep her in my heart for the rest of my life.
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Leaves are falling here. Some change in color. Working on garden clean up and preparing for the fall planting-garlic and then rye.
Got a new grow light for the lemon tree. Lemons are turning to yellow-soon will be harvest time for those. Received new bulbs for the plant starter lights which both burned out this spring.
Ordered basic seeds for next year and have received most of those. Not the best of garden harvest this year, but could have been worse.
