Two more mystery tools.

Actually we already identified the "S" one because @vaviurka knew it from her childhood in the village. But you can guess anyways :)

The right one I have no clue, other than its homemade and was important enough to have two of them.

Repacked the fertilizer and stuck the old labels on as far as there were any. Most are general NPK ones which we can just use up in the garden.

Also a pot of salt for some reason. And some leftover herbicide which I've got no use for. Oh, and a jar full of rendered lard that has gone rancid years ago. Not sure what to do with those.

Then there were two open sacks of white powder with no label. Extremely light and fluffy. Since the mice gnawed plenty of holes into the sacks, the yard now looks like Elon's couch table. I guess it's fertilizer so maybe the grass will grow extra fast (it does anyways).

That's this section cleared out, except what do I do with all this ancient hay? Don't need that much mulching right now.

Drizzly day, so I found some barn work. Tidying up the gardening tools and other junk.

These are just the usable ones, there's another pile that size in need of repair, mostly broken/wobbling handles. Half of those are pitchforks 😆

There's a bunch of sacks with chewed open bags of various fertilizers, salt and other chemicals, some of them with still readable labels. Luckily only small quantities.

Also a few mystery tools, like that massive thick steel bar. No idea what's that for. I've used it for making grooves to put seeds in :)
