Some days in the garden have grand plans that I set out to accomplish. Other days I go out and let the garden speak to me and just do what needs to be done. Today was one of the do what needs doing days. I weeded the plantings of peas with my fingers and the areas around them with a hand hoe. I put stakes in the ground to hold up the growing peas. I fertilized previous plantings with Maxsea, the seaweed based fertilizer I use. I cut some asparagus and picked some Imperator carrots which overwintered in the garden and had them for dinner (whole wheat spaghetti and thin carrot slices cooked together, with a tomato sauce including sauteed garlic and asparagus).
Finally tonight, I caught Illijana in the act of slug patrol. Note the flashlight and the bent posture which are classic slug patrol requirements.
