We have a new “garden tool:” the drone. Now we can get super accurate shots of the garden throughout the season. This one is from June 16:
We had a super rainy winter and spring, somewhere around double the average. But all of a sudden the rain stopped on June 20, the day before summer.
I pulled out the soaker hoses today. They were chewed to bits by rodents. I ordered new ones.
The tatsoi has sprouted nicely, the orach pretty well, and the mizuna, lettuce, and cutting greens sparsely. Keeping the soil surface moist has been a challenge this week due to extremely high winds (strong east winds blew the farm stand over yesterday) and very low humidity.
I finished installing the garden irrigation system today. We can run two soaker hoses on each of the six garden rows.
