Garden 2006

Seven gallons of cukes? DAMN. My cukes just got in the ground a few days ago, only two true leaves. Today I lifted the row covers to have a peak and one entire row of pickling cukes was completely GONE. not a trace. the other row was just leaf skeletons. Oddly whoever didn't eat the cotyledons, just the true leaves.

I'm too stressed to care. I'm looking at next year.

Also a new bastard woodchuck has taken up residnece under my shed, He ate 2/3 of my parsnip plant that I am letting go to seed. Today the brazen rodent kept running out to eat things whenever I went to the other side of the house to get a tool. I walked up to him with the paslode framing nailer and from about five feet I fired a couple of 3 1/2 framing nails at him. Since the thing doesn't really have sights, per se, my aim was a bit high and the nail missed him.

That's my gardening story this year.
