Perfect size homeowner garden.
I’m more of a quality over quantity guy myself.
Still having trouble getting cucumbers up and going.

my voting district is called Flintsville for a reason. More rocks here than leaves on the trees

I'm not too enthusiastic yet. We'll have some groceries, it just not be the mix I planned. It is hard to judge progress, since I had a while with no water. Got about .04 last Thur. and Fri., but was dusty by the afternoon. Finally got .25 Sat. and .30 Sun. night. Some sweet corn where I replanted skips is coming up, some is not. Went ahead and replanted skips in peas and green beans last Friday, since I have plenty of seed and didn't want to mess around too long.
Okra popped up good, but truckers favorite next to it has not emerged, but it has only been a little over a week and just since Saturday with the first good rain. Feels like a month ago.
I cut back on my cantaloupe, water melons, pumpkins and winter squash. They are doing find.
You can see where the hossinator maters end and the marglobes start. Hossinators are almost twice as tall, but we'll see if that translates into more production.
Cucumbers are blooming and getting ready to climb
I'm not a big store bought lettuce eater, but can eat a salad every night with a few fresh onions
Cabbage is starting to head out. Will probably pick some squash and zucchini next week. I'll pull all the onions planted in the fall Saturday. Some are seeding out, so I'll get her to run them through the food processor and freeze to cook, since they won't store. No garlic scapes yet, so they probably have a while to go.

We put some culverts in the creek when we built the cow n goat pen. These rocks will be our red neck rip rap around them culverts.

Gracious, I would have a rebellion on my hands if I made em haul these rocks with a wheelbarrow. I have to pick n choose how hard I make the job for these girls. They have their limits.
Finally got my biochar in. I'm doing an experiment. If the squirrels and chipmunks leave these alone I'll add a couple more in this bed. Sign courtesy of my daughter in law.
That one food plot was 4 wheelbarrow loads. Here's a sample of the big rocks that came out of it.
How big are they? One of them broke my subsoiler.

Dang! I could use some rocks like that around my culverts. Before I started throwing rocks on em I bought 200 bags of concrete n stacked em like bricks. Now I am putting rocks around the edges.

HA! I have a neighbor that calls em that. Sez they all just keep reproducin'.

This is the concrete solution on the culverts, we are pouring the rocks we pick on the edges.

That concrete firmed up inside the bag and is solid bricks now. Putting them down before they hardened made it easier to stack and let them conform to the dirt. So far so good, has stood up against a couple 3" rains so far. I only put in a 24" pipe but it has handled it so far.
