Potato plants & new plants

-

 I have six potato plants coming up out of the soil - yay!  


The marigold, 2 rosemary plants, and catnip are doing well


I bought 3 tomato plants, 4 marigold plants, one English thyme and 1 basil along with soil, nutrients, a whiskey half barrel and screening for the garden.  I also bought a pineapple to eat and the top to grow.  Time to start dehydrating apples and potatoes.  Everything else is getting so expensive.


Seeds: Onion (2 types), yellow squash, carrots, squash and pinto beans


There were packets of Aster flower seeds as giveaways at the library - yay!


Everything will wait until tomorrow.  I hurt myself wrestling with the potting soil, whiskey barrel and more.

  We picked up a second small Hotpoint chest freezer. With the prices going bananas we can definitely use it - we feed Grady (our oldest) chicken breast and liver, that takes up a lot of room very quickly in a freezer. Add in frozen veggies and pizzas..... All the Home Depots near us were out of the 5 to 6.5 sq cubic feet freezers but we found one at Lowe's that was actually $20 cheaper. We have a new stockpot on the way along with some 5 gallon buckets to grow potatoes, onions and whatever in. We also plan on cooking large batches of food and freezing along with starting canning. Gas is nearly $4 a gallon here. We're real happy with the government right now <sarcasm alert>
