Went out and looked through the garden. Found some red tomatoes, some cucumbers, a zucchini, and a few ears of corn.
There is still a few onion bulbs. I guess the next thing is to drag out the tiller and till it all in and let it snow?

You could maybe plant some sort of cover crop for the winter? The annual rye that I plant grows a tremendous root ball that I turn in with a spading fork. If you till though, it would probably make the tilling much more difficult having to tear through that thick root system. And then, your garden is always so productive anyway, maybe it's just not really necessary for you! Of course, once you get it planted there's not much to do then anyway so you're back to square one.jal_ut wrote:I don't have a green house and I refuse to garden in the house, so until April no gardening here.

Clean house, round up gardening supplies, make chore lists, watch movies, play solitaire, work a second job. Or, take more naps and just sit around eating cake and cookies (home made of course) and whine about how deep the snow is.jal_ut wrote:I don't have a green house and I refuse to garden in the house, so until April no gardening here.
