Ponds are still low, streams hardly flowing. It'll take time, at least the grass is greening up again. Expand yeah, I just looked at the latest drought monitor and was surprised that there wasnt more improvement from the most recent rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand A good start, but still lots of work to be done. It's worth noting that the drought monitor is valid as of 12z on the 6th, so most of Tuesday's rain (and beyond) wasn't factored-in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted September 9, 2022 Author Share Posted September 9, 2022 Will need to mow again soon but it’ll be like the first mow of the season. Parts of the yard need a trim while other areas don’t cause it’s still brown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put in some turnips, parsnips and another round of dill and cilantro. I'll probably add a few more herbs, should also add some leafy greens and garlic goes in early next month. I think it's too late for them to bear fruit but I also have tomatoes going crazy from the little stumps I had left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
