that neither takes more gives i've never seen anybody really try her she sort of the strong silent type for each sweet kind of mind your own business threat so she doesn't really care about her  just full of yourself if she was the best player she'd be in real trouble because it's been a pill lately kind of idea and put the little shocking device on stella for instance and it would have a little receiver not put the transponder over here on kitty one time this bird got within two feet of that bird they get a little electric shock  so they just love to go in there play as for change of pace that little routine in the afternoon they come out first then about an hour goes by i open this door all four of them go in rosie chases marie cow i close three enrico's in the big pen and kitty comes out to play for an hour or two and then they switch back when it's getting bedtime  embryo of seedlings come up from a single bead seed generally out of that seed that i've noticed there's you know one maybe two strong ones and some weak ones  know there's sort of bigger and smaller embryos and in the beech seed so i plant several of the beet seeds and that way i get you know maybe nine seedlings three good ones and i get to choose i'll let these grow out a little while longer now they're so young they're not crowding you to other even when they're very close like this and it's kind of hard to tell which are the winners at this point i've already have some good ideas just looking down the row that one display themselves before i start thinning these out then once them twice them three times and just as soon as they you're kind of having the population each time and assumes those that are left fill that space you know start been having has been playing havoc with me so i'm full of these as something that showed up a few years back much to my dismay because i don't even i rarely go  here and that's kind of what's left of the rust it didn't actually postulate this year when i first noticed it it had these it went to fruit you know in the spore elating and had these sort  of fairly large orange spots on it which of course you just covered with spores that under the right conditions hatch out and infect new plants this year and you know in the last couple years it's only exhibited the first symptom is just a little yellowing stripes kind of between the veins of the leaves and of the stalk and that's kind of what you're seeing hears that we can tissue starting to show so what we're going to do you know the first year showed up i actually was like dipping the foliage in bleach and rinsing and cleats different the head maybe even i did more because this stuff so pervasive at this point  see so they've kind of dropped cured in the ground i'm going to take them out make sure those wrappers are moistened as you can see if i have lost my wrapper typical bonehead mistake with your hard neck garlic because they do have the very delicate wrapper think going to try the same thing the other thing i noticed was i found the test clothes from last year yost ten percent bleach solution twenty minute thirty minute sixty minute overnight so you know did a few tests coincidence but these were just single close sitting on my bench for nine months and they were still very well preserved so a way to get that garlic out will decide what goes in there maybe a nice overwintering broccoli purple sprouting broccoli or something and i'm not sure what i've got to start thinking about next year's garlic to they won't go in those beds because you always try to rotate around  water so i've been kind of thinning some of that out and give it to the chickens and they'll eat what they can in fact speaking of watering i actually this time of year boy you know it's so dry here in seattle and had a really dry summer but it takes kind of a couple months for that soiled finally just dry out bone dry where you can't you know up to this point of carbon hand watering because you know it's like well you know you give it a little water and it's back to a very moist you know level and you back off and now with so you know many months of dry weather behind us it's really getting bone dry so i actually put in the irrigation drip irrigation just saves a lot of time it's getting to the point where you know i've got all these beds and full grown plants there transpiring a lot of water we're not getting any rain and it just got to be too much acres hand water so i've got trunk lines running through the garden a couple of them with these little offshoots of drip hose they've been kind of kept and you know dormant over there over the years and i want to head and you know the water that was already laid down i just plugged it in threaded the hose and i've got water in the peppers and corn squash carrots tomatillos just about anything that's actively growing as water on it because of course the tomatoes don't want  eat tomatoes more than twice a month so the cucumbers particularly were being hard water so now they're they're happy in fact what was my prediction for the first pickles back when we planted these july fourth is so you know august nineteenth eighteenth somewhere in there you know today it's like fourteenth i don't have a court yet so i don't think i'm going to make it because i am starting to and this guy's you know about twelve hours away from sort of a nice dill sized and noticed a couple more around here and keep them in this year i'm not saving seed now  sean vine originally black spine french quarter sean and that's when you pick them for those little guys and you know i pick them anywhere from here and then generally i've got a variety of sizes the bigger ones i'll make asian variety and it's got sort of a web be strong and very fuzzy spines that the you know when you see occasionally you'll see one in here that  not immune to this stuff but it's resistance everything sped back here like i said as you know there's something about this bed either didn't get amended as well or so i was saying the peas were in front of it for the first week or two of their lives so the might be just behind from sun deprivation and so i'm put me in nitrogen on and i think that would probably be a good idea put all fish on a and so coming out here every morning showing them where the string is we've given them another week and now they're starting to show their second leaf their first and second leaf which is the typical frond the leaf of the umbrella for family care family and these guys are just about getting ready to this first round these are very small plants and they're tightly clustered because we we planted a little cluster of five or eight seeds every it's one and a half two inches here  rather than just a continuous modulus row and that way we're we're already at sort of our first spacing here when we thin these out each clump out so you just get in it and you know as soon as you poll one you think oh i should've left that other one i should pull that one and left this one and but you do that now that's a strong one because he's going to fill the space you know that's the whole point is one plant will fill the second spaces three plants and you want one big plant not three little ones carrots actually get rather large in their final stage you know when they're getting to be you know the foot long storage carrots they will be a lot of front they're sticking orange and green and you know there's nothing to scale so i kind of pictured it you know sort of a danish squash type thing it's continent into sort of a pumpkin thing  so you know we'll see what happens with that and i'm pretty pleased very vigorous vigorous vine couple vines are having trouble producing unfortunately but that will save seeds from the winters particularly this time of year is really easy for those squash to get a little drought stressed at the end of the day even if you water in the next morning makes the leaves sort of brittle makes cuticle dried out and brittle and that's the perfect environment for the powder and you don't really see it without a meal without a glass when it's just spreading its hifi across the leaf but when you start seeing this is pretty contagious so what i what i should have done was mix this stuff up  creations she tried retro back to the original organ sweetmeat cupboard and that's the way they look past couple years when i've grown a mouthful but last year they got in with a banana pink banana squash which is a long yellow cylindrical thing when the squash hits the wire this is where i realized i needed some cushioning there because you could see that scar that actually used to be all the way turn the other way there's a little study for anybody out with some time on their hands rotation of squash while ripening why how i corns doing good in that you know it's corning you know where it's and see how the corn tastes this year i'm really not a corn guy but i gave it a try this year and then the peppers course so this is the year of the pepper really nice sets nice plants disease free  you know every plants set and really at the maximum here in the eight bad with the feed bad you know i had some issues with my seedlings this year due to time constraints so i only have just barely enough to plant these two beds i usually have choices of stronger and weaker plants but this year i just planted everything in a bed is doing beautiful really shows you know if you pick the right seedlings this is what it's looking like and this is the breeding project still seeing a couple different forms you know some longer ones some wrinkly or one some bigger ones some smaller ones fish pepper the bread with a whole bunch of stuff over the years one after the other and so i'm always a little nervous wondering whether this has stabilized yet into what i'm looking for which is sort of an orange wrinkly new mexican or portuguese were raw and morphology
