I don't think the neighboring big farms would notice the loss but I don't like the thought of my birds eating what I saw being sprayed in the spring.hoosier girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042021292102476233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861015052975520671.post-17536454086510738002015-07-05T14:09:16.973-04:002015-07-05T14:09:16.973-04:00The helpers sure loved that wheat!

It was kind of fun to watch, even if I do have mess to clean up in the bed. <br /><br />Yeah, we don't get a lot of 'happy surprises' in the garden either. It seems things either work pretty much as one would expect, or just fall apart. At least there are two mistakes I won't make again soon!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08343134852881572900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861015052975520671.post-44389430049166626272015-07-05T14:04:53.544-04:002015-07-05T14:04:53.544-04:00The Mock Strawberries did take us a bit by surpris...The Mock Strawberries did take us a bit by surprise. I was pretty happy until those yellow blossoms popped out. I've got a couple of other places I used the wheat straw I'm going to have to clean out, too. I'm guessing it will take a couple of years to be "wheat free".

It's what keeps gardening interesting. But my question is why do all the "unexpecteds" alway end up being in the fail category?????<br />When will I ever discover THE NEXT GREAT THING in gardening?????????? I've had plenty of fails.........but few triumphs!!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122524042294993949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861015052975520671.post-50879990119939821632015-07-03T19:19:35.067-04:002015-07-03T19:19:35.067-04:00Gotta say I've never gone through the Mock Str...Gotta say I've never gone through the Mock Strawberry fiasco, but I had substantial problems one year when I mulched my (real strawberries) with oat straw. That would be oat straw that had A LOT of oats left in it. I had some lovely, lush, narrow "fields" of oats all throughout my strawberry patch. Geesh. What a chore to get rid of that. 'Course, I didn't invite the chickens to help me as you did. Hee-hee.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.com
