Garlic is up about 2 inches. Got some straw to put on the bed probably Monday.

Today, I’ve been working on getting another garden bed ready for garlic-finally got the shipment of Siberian Garlic delivered.

I find that I have to rest about every ten minutes-didn’t used to be that way. Takes a lot longer to get stuff done. We have to go to St. Louis tomorrow for hubby’s MRI, so it may be Monday before I get around to planting the garlic too.

Since we finally got a frost, I think it may be safe to sow some winter wheat. And finish up the rest of the beds. I dug up a bedraggled pepper plant to bring in and it’s looking perky now. Bay leaf is in the green house. Lemon trees are inside the basement next to the patio doors and under the new grow light.

Still have a tumeric in a pot that I need to harvest. Will plant some in a pot for next spring and I think maybe freeze some and dry the rest.

I'm trying the pepper thing too...I have two plants in my bathtub upstairs that believe it or not gets the best sunlight....I watered them a little....I put them in some pro mix....mostly they're just Y stems that are green ....the truth in the pudding is if they start growing leaves....we'll see.....

my garden in the north country is shot....still cleaning out beds...still adding some composting material to the beds.....dissappointed in my beets....pulled them up, and there was very very few....next year I guess..
