Kartoffelajourføring

The 'Dark Red Norland' kartofler I planted i april look very happy. I had to use a couple hog fencing panels to keep hjortene from eating the foliage. Up until a few years ago, hjortene never bothered my kartofler plants. Since then, it has gotten a lot dryer and hotter in the spring. My guess is they have less wild green foliage available so they go after whatever foliage they can find.

Eating half a soursop fruit yielded several seeds that I'll be trying to grow 👩‍🌾

Having some coffee on the deck. Overlooking my backyard gardening work station in the garden. I have more transplanting to do, after visiting my Uncle in the hospital.

I dug a new ainneor (traditional Irish garden bed) for a late planting of 'Mira Sarpo' potatoes. I have never planted potatoes this late in the spring but a book I have said you can plant mid-late and late varieties in June so that they are ready to harvest just before the first autumn frost.

We'll see how it goes. I'm worried the young plants will cook in our new hot summers (it supposed to be 36°C the next two days). 😬

Finally thinned out my big pot of assorted #carrots 🥕
One of my friends has a bunny. She's picking up what I pulled to feed her bunn.

It's pouring rain outside. Forecast calls for more rains tomorrow. My rain barrels & buckets will be filled well. Sunshine returns on Wednesday.
I'll thinning out this large pot, full of mixed carrots & some self seeded tomatoes, on Wednesday morning before going to work. I wasn't expecting that many carrot seeds to germinate. I used a bag of 3 year old seeds to sow this pot.
I grow all my root vegetables in big pots for easier harvesting. All my yams & potatoes are growing out of large felted bags. I have beetroot & turnips growing together out of a large Rubbermaid bin.
