Gardening

Although I'm still holding off til at least Monday to plant the snow peas, since we're supposed to dip below freezing Sunday night. After that it looks decent, so I'm going to give it a shot. I set it up along the north edge of the main garlic bed, which is at the north end of the garden, so it wouldn't block sunlight from the rest of the garden when the peas grow in. I finally figured out how the hinge coils were supposed to go on the cucumber frame without requiring a strong man to put them on as well - it would have helped if they hadn't taped the instructions to the frame, so that the tape tore chunks out of them when I tried to get them off.

The hugelkultur mound at the south end of the garden looks to have caved in in places over the winter, the cherry wood buried in there must be rotting faster than I thought it would. I'll have to do some fill in work with compost and manure.
