Deeply Rooted
Haven't been here for a while. I read some posts to try to catch up a little. I've been really busy and keep making more work for myself.
The was the worst weed patch I've had in years The wet spring we had let the weeds pretty much take over. I was intending to do a lot of sawdust mulching, but between the mud and only having a shovel and wheelbarrow, it didn't get done.
There is about 40 feet of green beans just coming on, and the Indian & seed sweet corn are starting to dry. I have most of the garden in soybeans now.
I've taken a few steps to make sure I get my mulching done next year. I already told about the tractor with loader I bought - http://www.theeasygarden.com/threads/new-garden-tool.17398/
I bought a very lightly used manure spreader that spreads sawdust really well - https://www.newerspreader.com/
Since the 37 year old pickup that I bought brand new, and use as my work truck, needs several things fixed, I started looking for another truck to use while mine is down. A couple weeks ago I found a 1964 F250 with a dump bed. It needs a few things fixed (more work) and then it's my main work truck for a while. I can haul and quickly unload my sawdust now.
Also a couple weeks ago I saw a tiller at a used farm equipment dealer as I drove by. Last week I drove by again at 4:30 am on Thursday. This time I stopped, and with my flashlight I looked it over. On Saturday, I went back and brought it home. It needs new tines and a couple u-joints(more work).
With these new additions I'm ready to get a lot of garden work done (more work?).
For some reason there is two of every picture.
