Greetings, Fellow Amateur Pruners And Other Cutting Edge Tech Users!
Today was a continuation of last Saturday's work...or the beginning of never-ending work...or the middle of never-ending work, rather. Still, I shall consider it a continuation of last Saturday for the sake of this narrative. So, before I shared some of the things I learned about pruning fruit trees and such. It's in The Pruning Of The Unprunable and there's some real tech explained there.
Today shall be a recap of the tasks that I was able to get back to while trying to complete the incompletable.
I did feel there was even more work left behind than when I actually started. And that might be a false sense that is normal for tired people.
But let me make a list of it all...
Shooting
Although not of the kind of work that's land-related, time it took and extra measures. Can't properly report without it.
The woodpeckers do their best to help their sanitary colleagues.
Driving there
I almost forgot this one. But time it takes, as well.
Cutting stuff down.
Fig and apple branches.
Vines.
More apple and cherry branches.
Also roses, plums, peaches, apricots...
More figs...
More figs...
After five or so hours of this, I went for some diversity tasks, at last.
Planting seeds.
Carrots there.
Garlic...
From a tiny pack that my wife has bought about a week ago and it was mostly bad...
Peas.
I decided I should use seeds that I personally dried after last season's harvest. Something has eaten the core of most of the seeds, though.
Nobody knows if this should work. Planting any that looked all right.
Packing some soil for use on my balcony back in town.
Checking on last year stuff,
The chestnut tree looks fine after almost a whole season around here...
And we're halfway there...
Peace and Parsley!
(in whatever condition)
Yours,
Manol
