Cork is sustainable in the way that it's a natural material and that it regrows after harvest without cutting down the tree. I don't know how sustainable the glue and other products used to make it into a finished product are. Thank you for sharing the article! The gardens are pretty much...

The woman running the site does something similar as Russ, she also has a network of growers to multiply seeds. This is my 3rd year multiplying seeds for the bohnenatlas. Last year there even was a meet up with growers trading beans, stories and looking at the collection of beans, but I couldn't...

We hit 104F today, almost 105. A new all time high, it never was this hot since they started measuring. Even now at half past 10 it's still 91F outside...

@baymule have you seen the true appaloosa documentary?

I do miss @aftermidnight and marshall in the little bean thread. I hope they are both well.

Are you sure they don't ship to the US? I can select the US at checkout. Otherwise we can let them ship to me and I send them to you.

If rhubarb is doing well it's okay to pick a few stalks in the first year. Go easy and the roots will still develop just fine. I did this myself and now in year 2 I've got stalks of 2 pounds!!! Ans a killer leaf... Enjoy!

The cork boards are called tiles and are 100% cork, 4mm (5/32 inch) thick and are 300x600mm, about a foot by 2 foot. They are quite flexible and easy to cut to size. My wive glued the tiles a day before and we gluad the floor on the day, hammering the tiles into place. I got them straight up to...

They are finally blooming! This morning while I was getting some strawberries in the garden I spotted them right away.

Yes a De Wit is the hoe I want! They have lots of great other tools too! https://www.dewit.eu/nl/

My favorite tool is pictured below, would you call this a hoe? My favorite one has a longer handle, but otherwise same as pictured. It basically is a multitool, I use it for weeding, preparing for sowing and planting. If I would be allowed only one gardingtool this would be it. I have this...

I wish I had, but wouldn't have had the time for it now. My DW ordered them online.

Handrail on the stairs! Starting to look like a normal house now.

And we have a finished floor and working lights! Yeah! :celebrate It was a late one, we were done after 1 am. Cork needed 2 coats of paint and we started at 2 pm after the electrician left. Happy with the result, but my knees are spent.

Yes, it's such a big difference! Can't wait to have my coffee in the morning with the sun shining through.

Doors are in! Tomorrow the electrician is here to fix stuff upstairs and after he's gone we start laying the cork floor in the bedrooms! Before... After!
