Pods hatched!

17 years ago

I got 3 pods from the salmon colored noid that smells so good! I saw the stems dried today on two and the third was looking slimy so I opened them all. They all look dark tan to brown so hope they are all cooked properly, lol. I have them drying now. John can't wait to plant some up. I was going to do a few but am too tired. I stripped everything in the greenhouse washed with alcohol and applied liquid systemic. The aphids and mealy bugs exploded in there already. Grrr. John got the hardi board up on the front side of the greenhouse and started another side and I got some weeding done. All my little bulbs are sprouting and a purple hyacinth blooming and some of the crocus but gonna get a freeze tonight. Got some plants potted up and watered everything good. Now I'm flat on my back for a little while, lol. Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

    I need a clone to go to work for me this week, lol. I think I did too much yesterday and John insisted I go fishing today so I went and showed him how to catch big fish but had to take a lot of meds. I didn't realize how bad I looked til I saw the pic I posted on the show yourself thread. I was really pale. I think I will have to stay home from work tomorrow. It will be warm again Tuesday so I can finish cleaning the nasty van that day. Going to bed. I'll see you all tomorrow.

    Love those brugs. The local bee population and a bunch of Spinx moths give me a bunch of good hardy crosses. You live such a busy life. I had to slow down since I crossed the big 50.

    Now what am I worrying about ???? Leaving my dogs for a week while I go play in Vegas. Strange how priorities change. Had to give greenhouse and dog instructions to my son. Dogs get steak and rice M-W, Thursday-Saturday they get Popeyes chicken with their dry food.

    Found a some good gardens to go to there also. I will have to take a bunch of pictures of them. Greenhouse are neat LOL I have 4 flats going and about another 60 starts and room for 3 x that again. I love my greenhouse. LOL

    I know what you mean Jim. We have to arrange sitters for our dogs if we go out of town too and now the greenhouse as well since if it doesn't get opened in the mornings everything will cook. It gets to 100 degrees by noon already with it shut up so I can't leave now unless we wait til no more freezes at night then I can just leave it open with no worries. Can't get the massage until tonight so I guess I will go to work.

    Jim those are some spoiled dogs, steak and rice? Popeye's chicken? Mine would love it if they could get some food like that, the most they ever get is leftover rice.
