Where we started. Nov of 2021!
It’s looking pretty good out there! This weekend we fill in all the empty spaces with seeds! I have a couple empty trellises yet.

I sprinkled all the beds with the spinosad granules on Monday. Hopefully that takes care of the cutworm problem enough that they won’t eat every seedling that pops up.

The perfect time to round up some fertilizer for your garden. As David the Good says β€œcompost your enemies”
*FALLING IGUANAS* are possible for parts of Florida Saturday & Sunday morning as colder air moves in. When temps drop to 45Β° and lower, iguanas can fall out of trees! They're not dead, just immobilized. Most South Florida Metro iguanas look safe this round, but others across the state might not be as lucky! 🦎πŸ₯Ά

Oh we were just talking about these yesterday…..
Holy smokes. Robot mowers are getting really, really good. I sent mine out on a β€œborder cut” which allows it to get its wheels a little outside of its normal pattern. I thought for sure this place along the street would give it problems. It handled it flawlessly, even when driving off the curb a couple times. This one is 4 wheel drive, and it articulates. They told me it was nearly impossible for it to get stuck. I’m starting to believe them now.

I will never bother cutting butter into flour for drop biscuits again. Using heavy cream instead is much easier & delicious

I have a cutworm problem still. Bastards are killing off my seedlings. My soil is too wet for DE to be of any use to protect anything I plant today, so I’ve ordered granular spinosad. It will be here tomorrow!

Florida Crackers. Well done!
Cowboys in Arcadia, Florida, used a boat and ropes to execute a delicate rescue operation on November 3, herding stranded cattle and a donkey through rising floodwaters. The team worked tirelessly from the afternoon deep into the night, successfully guiding every animal safely to higher ground.
