A vegetable lazy Sarthe

Yes, garlic does not like being in too wet ground - that's one of the exceptions, where butter can be positive.

This is especially important for winter garlic, which is put in the fall.

I transplant through the hay and I normally put at the hay-soil interface. But there, yesterday, the hay was still what is left of last year, a little thin layer, and as I still bet on severe frosts with us (possible! Not certain !!!), I pushed in a little in the ground, so that they "covered".

I really need next year I re-seed 2017 in cold and wet hay all winter and that had not given rise to: no problem and especially the easiest harvest to harvest

Hi the phénoculteurs,

early in the morning I set up my bulblets of onions (about 500 and some):
- 250 gr from stuttgarter riesen
- 1 kg of stuttgarter (it's the same ??)
- 500 gr of sturon

I did not put red onions this year ...

It took me a good two hours to install all this (quietly, and with small breaks;)) For spacing, they are just about every 10 / 15 centimeters in all directions, but not too close to the edges because I want to be able to mow the edges of boards serenely.

For setting up, I removed the hay to make it easier:

Then I put a good layer (more than last year, or I had been on another board too thin that was invade and I had almost nothing harvested ...):

I hope that it will pierce well and that the harvest will be good.

Regarding the garlic put in place in November, that's what it looks like today:

I wish you all a good day, I must go to work ...

Yes, often "Stuttgarter" on labeling machines they don't have enough space, so they shorten ... "Stuttgarter riesen" [literally: "the giant from Stuttgart"] to "Stuttgarter"

hello phenoculturists!

my fellow gardener has done well with his "matador" type spinach seedling, so he spent a lot of plants to transplant by removing the row from his row:

I will try to transplant this to the garden tomorrow on a small board with hay already in place, putting the maximum under a chassis with freezer glass that I have in a corner of the garden. some will surely be planted directly. I'll put a hold of course so that the air circulates if we have a hot shot in the day ...

it seems to me feasible? someone else with spinach?

good night...

hello the phenocultors,

just for fun, two pictures of the garden. Only the bulbs are in place, the onions are starting to come out, the trees are in bloom, the raspberry strawberry berries are waking up sweetly ... I take this opportunity to share these two photos together:

Have a good week !

Pretty...

We trees in bloom it will be for ... in about a month

In my last video, posted this morning, I encourage people to learn to spot phenological stages rather than go back to guides, the moon and other landmarks without interest!

It's sure it's the only and best method.

However, even if there are more or less reliable sources, nothing is ever acquired.

It is only the beginning of the "fashion" of vegetable gardens but I expect to see some disappointments because the ideal weather is not always at the rendezvous.

Most striking is the somewhat naive assurance of the neo-water gardeners who tend to consider agriculture as if they were pressing an electric switch and the light comes on.

As if a seed was going to produce a vegetable.

Almost they sow it and they see themselves consuming it.
I sow 10 tomato plants, each plant will give me 4kg so that's it I'm autonomous tomatoes.

While the opposite is often the case with the pros, the opposite is true: there is a reserve and the "if all goes well" often seems to be underlying in their words.

Excellent remark: if the "plants knew", there would never be any frost.

This is not what I meant! The observation of the phenological stages of a set of plants indicates to us very precisely where we are in the "season", much more infallibly than the "guides" or "calendars" (which even "permaculturalists" are however fond of). This takes into account the weather of the year and with great finesse the differences in the situation. Downstairs, in Rosheim, the plum trees are in bloom! At home, nothing !!! (100 m altitude difference and 4 km as the crow flies).

There remains the "risk": a brutal frost such as this April 21, 2017, that nobody, neither the gardeners, nor the meteorologists, nor the plants foresee !!! Must be clear, if I have not been!
