WEEDS TAKE OVER OUR GARDEN EVERY YEAR BUT THIS YEAR!
“Alan, your hamstrung injury will make gardening impossible.”
“Do you think so?”
“You could not even pick up that toonie you dropped at the parking meter.”
“So?”
“So, forget about gardening this year…weeds usually take over
any way. You are not the best weeder in the world even in perfect
shape.”
“So, forget about the garden.”
“Not so fast…”
“Use your head, do not waste time on the garden.”
“We have those water old troughs with holes in them…and big
plastic pots for garbage…All are now filled with topsoil and thriving.”
‘No need to bend over…tomatoes, cucumbers, dill, beans,
potatoes, lettuce, even watermelons at our finger tips with
no bending.”
“Maybe you are not as stupid as you look.”?
“Flattery will get you everywhere, Marjorie…have an onion.”
THOSE of you with good eyes will notice another facet of our 2019 garden.
What? The skids…ever pot, trough, container sits on skid so we can use
the bob cat to move the garden away from the weeds…or put it in a
better position for the sun. No labour.
In normal years, by mid August, our garden has been lost as the weeds below win the race for the sun. This year we have won.
