I'm currently shrinking some TV shows. 2.0 GB is a bit large for 45 minutes of video and we don't have a big fancy TV. That and the hard drive nearly filled up and I have a couple more TV series and a few movies I want to add. Yeah, we watch the same stuff over and over but slowly enough so that it's a few years between watching again. We fill in with free streaming.
Couldn't find any cabbageworms yesterday and they never made it down the the Bok Choy. Only found a few the last time I looked. Choy is big enough now that they probably wouldn't want it. Few more weeks and another cold snap and those will be ready to start eating. Some lettuce too.
I think I'm going to start a mixed tray of onions this weekend. I have no idea if the varieties are good for overwintering. I think they all can be but some are probably better than others?? Just glanced at seed garlic. Kinda pricey. My neighbor up the road grows some sort of big potent horseradish. Might pay him a visit tomorrow.
We're still around 11 hour days and don't drop below 10 until 11/19/24 so I might start some more Asian greens to replace what got eaten by the cabbageworms. Seed packets say 4-6 hours of sunlight so I think there's time for for them to get big enough for eating.
Played a couple of youtube videos from my favorite market gardener and noticed my son paid full attention. Hmm. Aspie boy has a photographic and phonographic memory too. Someone's planting potatoes next Spring and it ain't me. His favorite veggie is carrots but that's not a good first time growing project. Could just be he liked the guy's personality of course but he's still doing the taters because that's easy and a lot of work taken off of me.
No rain in sight and it's dry. Watered yesterday for 20 minutes. Did 30 minutes 4 days ago and it was still moist yesterday 1" to 1-1/2" down but I have some new Mesclun transplants who's roots aren't much deeper than 1-1/2. Got two mostly full IBC tanks down there so that will last a while for one little bed. I'm good for about 40 watering sessions @ 30 minutes.
