A little while ago I wanted to weed my garden. I however
went a little berserk and ripped everything out except for my jalapeños, Serrano, and forget-me-nots. The
peas were taller than me and the watermelons I couldn’t keep from spreading
like wildfire. Fruitless plants coupled with the overabundance of rain we’d
been having that caused some roots to rot sent me into a rage and I uprooted
everything and tossed it all aside. It’s been about three weeks or so since I
did that and now my forget-me-nots are blooming and beautiful, the jalapeños are starting to flower and the
Serrano’s are still dwarf sized but hanging in there. I have a renewed sense of
energy and excitement and this week I’m going to tackle the rest of the brick
path I started, clear out the weeds and overgrowth crowding around my garden,
and build a fence to protect it from the cows. Right now it’s starting to be
the dry season so I’m going to hold off on planting anything, save those that
grow best in this weather, and focus on preparing the garden for the next rainy
season. In a few months I’m hoping to have a beautiful garden surrounded by
flowers and plants that actually grow food. Tuzareba (we’ll see). Pictures to come when I have internet that can handle the uploading process.
