@Nathan@social.lostinok.comFirst day post harvest madness underway: taco sauce starting to ferment, bruschetta in a jar ready to can, first batch of salsa verde in the hot water bath. So much left to do. 🌱 #gardening #preserving #peppers
@brian_gettler@mas.toIn positive news, after the cold snap we've had since November, the last couple of days' warmer weather coupled with the heavy rain we had over night thawed the ground enough for us to plant the garlic. We also discovered a few forgotten radishes in the process.

Back in the spring, I planted some old seeds in pots: spinach, parsley, rocket, iirc. All spring and summer, nothing happened, so I thought they were too old - "oh well, it was worth a try". And I think I must have taken out my wooden labels at that point, because I can't find them now.
But now there are some leaves growing in the pots.
Can any "real gardeners" identify this? Is it just a random arrival or might it be one of my sown seeds making a late appearance? Is it edible?
@brian_gettler@mas.toWho needs to carve pumpkins when you grow zucchini that look like this?

@Nathan@social.lostinok.comThe fruits of tonight’s mad dash harvest of the feral garden to get as much picked before the cold snap starts signaling to the plants to slow down. I think we have some work to do. 🌱#gardening #oklahoma #okwx
@hikingdude@mastodon.socialThe garden festival / Landesgartenschau was not just about #gardening. There were also events etc. (Which we didn't attend)
One place was about #floristry with really beautifully decorated arrangements. I'm always a bit jealous of such things. They look really beautiful, and requir…
@brian_gettler@mas.toA decent haul from our cramped city garden as we close up for the winter.

@ellie@ellieayla.netEnd of the harvest season. Pulled the last of the tomatoes and peppers from our victory garden. I'm going to dehydrate about a kilogram of jalapeños and grind them into a powder.

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caI don't think I have twisted off the cap for the cleanout since I bought the whole assembly... 5months? I only slid the end into the pipe in August so hadn't needed to screw off the cap. It took some leverage/persuasion to turn it.
But I was successful, and now the big filter can be drained. The water was actually higher than the bottom of the cap but no big deal, it's not really under any pressure.

@brian_gettler@mas.toPesto-making day. The basil and garlic are ours, the sunflower and pumpkin seeds and the olive oil (duh) are from the store.

@brian_gettler@mas.toWe grew the most gorgeous Brussels sprout plants this year. Of course, we didn't actually get a single Brussels sprout. But since it turns out you can eat the leaves - which we have in profusion - who cares?

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caemptied the pond overnight. We have had so much rain this past month! All are full. I am going to drain it all and keep it drained until I get the pumps wired and can habe them installed and running. Don't want the water to get stale and unhealthy.
I think I might hire a stone mason to build the wall.
moving the pump into the intake bay now. It should be empty by the time I am back from the day's ceremonies.

@brian_gettler@mas.toSince it seems frost may finally be on the cards this week, we picked all the tomatoes this afternoon. With a little luck, we'll make and can green tomato jam tomorrow.

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.cagot home in the dark last night and left in the dark this morning but there has been #poolpond progress in my absence!
The fence builders started!
They augered post holes. They managed to not cut any pipes or wires in the frontyard pond... the holes are BIG.
Glad the fence is happening though. The rains have come with a vengeance and the ponds are filling fast! I wil feel much better knowing no one can get into the yard and be in danger of falling in.
