gardening stuff
yesterday was the first nice day i was not working for, so after pathfinder session, i cleaned up the porch some and got a jump on gardening stuff
replanted a bunch of the strawberries. they needed to be pulled from that tiered thing i bought them all in a few years ago. re-utilized the tiered thing for herbs instead, gonna see how that pans out. we have, like, 8-10 strawberry plants now so i'm gonna have to start pawning them off on people lol. especially b/c they branch out and can be snipped to plant fresh (if they were in the ground and not containers, they'd just spread out and take root)
also hit up home depot last week and acquired a bunch of cheap-ass bricks ($0.48/ea) to edge the garden with. just to make it look nicer, basically. and a bunch of compost/mulch to mix in to my soil b/c i've had the garden there a few years and it needs a bit of a boost. end of last year i gathered a bunch of leaves and worked those into the soil a bit and layered contractors bags over it (which i use for a weed barrier anyhow), so hopefully the decomp of those + beneficial insects and other ground creatures will have helped that process
gonna pull out the black eyed susans from the other side of the yard and do mixed wildflowers and stuff for pollinators/butterflies. the other side is pretty shaded, so can't do more veg over there
