Alaskan's Life

Looks like eldest finally got a job with decent hours... which means... we will be down a car.

This is going to get tricky.

So... 2 kids started to dig out the old Ford, we will try to get the front end fixed for a reasonable cost....

After hours of work... not yet done

And what a beauty. I hope you have some bigger containers for the seeds you started, so you can delay the planting time until the "thaw".

Still snow? When does it.melt?

Well... starting to slowly... there were slushy spots on Sunday, but now it has firmed back up, so now a few spots are icy.

It should be mostly gone in a month.

Ah.... a Blizzard!

Yep... that forecast of 40 degrees was a LIE!!!

How about you start the thread... and if your questions are any different, maybe I will rewrite and tweak the post.


Glad you liked it.

Will do, when I get some time.

Strawberries generally thrive in cooler zones. Choosing the right variety is key! and getting them from someone who has had success with a variety is a win/win situation, b/c the plants are already adapted to local growing conditions. I've toyed with the idea of harvesting seeds from my best berry plants, and growing them out.

So true!

Now... wouldn't it be sweet if strawberries GREW on a vine, like pole beans!!!!!!

Yes!
