Found one other adult this morning, so there must be more, but so far no eggs.<br /><br />Poor Breo started limping again this morning, so I drove him to Lugo today and they took an xray. Fortunately, they say all is well with the joint, so we´ll enforce more rest and start anti-inflamatories again. <br /><br />We´ve got 4 more days of 90 degree heat forecast. Whew.<br /><br />Hi Chris,<br /><br />That particular rose shot out some unexpected octopus arms and had to be staked. I´ll be cutting it back now that the flowers are spent.<br /><br />I´m embarassed to say, I didn´t start saved seeds, just purchased. I get about 50% germination to the cotyldon stage, and then nothing. They just sit there, then eventually succumb to dampening off or dry up. Most frustrating.<br /><br />And on top of that, some new varmint dug from above and ripped out the only remaining tomatillo and a tomato start. Grrrrr.<br /><br />It´s uncomfortably hot here this week, and likely to get hotter. So odd you´re in reverse mode. Enjoy your new heater!Cocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002346978289429622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499671076590096775.post-26167451160986423942017-06-15T13:51:24.935+02:002017-06-15T13:51:24.935+02:00Hi Coco,

They're really very good. <br /><br />Incidentally, did you ferment your collected tomato seeds in water for three days prior to drying them out before then storing them last season? The fermenting really improves the germination the following season as it kills heaps of nasties on the collected seeds. <br /><br />I'm really jealous of your peas too. They look great! And well, let's just say that pumpkins and melons go together! I'll be curious to hear of your melon experiences as I was only successful for the first time this past summer and the Portuguese millipedes began raiding the melons the moment they ripened.<br /><br />Your wood stack is looking very good and purposeful. The inside of the house here right now is toasty warm with the wood fire. It is cold as outside though. Brr!<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />ChrisFernglade Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06950962122594709186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499671076590096775.post-83951877361602415222017-06-14T14:23:37.504+02:002017-06-14T14:23:37.504+02:00Hi, Coco!
No! Don't let Breo into the garden!...Hi, Coco!<br /><br />No! Don't let Breo into the garden! I am assuming that he is mostly back to his old self? It kind of sounds like you might have moles; maybe some traps are in order? I can't imagine why so many of your seeds didn't germinate. Once a mouse got into my seed stores and I didn't notice until we were ready to plant. Lots of cucumbers - yay! - gazpacho! <br /><br />You gave me a heads up over at Fernglade last week with your mention of potato beetles. I couldn't figure out what these bugs are that are eating the tomatillos (our first time growing tomatillos) and, by golly, they are potato beetle larvae.<br /><br />The wood stack is so neat and tidy.<br /><br />We have been having a heat wave, too. Watering and watering and watering. It's supposed to rain and cool off tomorrow.<br /><br />PamPam in Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00895842137691734477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499671076590096775.post-26697698492196577842017-06-14T09:35:52.389+02:002017-06-14T09:35:52.389+02:00Hi Anne,

May have to wait until someone goes to La Coruña.Cocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002346978289429622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499671076590096775.post-71413893520188422452017-06-14T02:04:23.799+02:002017-06-14T02:04:23.799+02:00Love pickled walnuts a real childhood memory, neve...Love pickled walnuts a real childhood memory, never see them nowadays.<br />Have you tried the farmers market in Lugo for tomato plants? they always seemed to have tomato cuttings there which work just as well as tomato plants as long as you keep them watered until they are established.Renovation in Galiciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134753603087085719noreply@blogger.com
