I don't have one yet.
I haven't tried it myself yet.
My grandmother, and sunt usually do that part, but I'm going to try it
myself this year.
I'll let you know, when I figure it out.
How's your garden doing?

This reminds me, I need to plant more cucumbers in the row! I can't wait to make Oi Kimchi (cucumber kimchi)! :woot:
Yeesh! Maybe not if they're as big as I think they are. Use thick plastic sheeting. You can use strong sticks or anything to make a frame. Use strong tape to keep the sheeting from flapping open in the wind.

you mean from the cold?
if so..don't worry too much. I think they'll come back.
root crops are tough that way.
What is that then, about ... 2.5 or 3 C?
Oh true. I forgot to put the minus sign in front of it.
I tried peas one year. It's too hot here for peas.
~~~~~All we are saying... is give peas a chance!
~~~~~Jeeze! We have an orchard but it is behind a fence and surrounded by dogs. I guess it's a good thing. Sorry to hear about your peaches. Ours are a bit bigger than thumb size, so far so good! We may have a good year for peaches (on the remaining peach trees, damn drought).dang deer!
In one day the just about wiped out my peaches.
The peaches were about thumb size, and they chomped um off almost down to the stem.
You can see the teeth marks.
I didn't think they'd mess with um this early.

I'm not too disappointed, after I though about it a while.
This is only the second year since planting them, and this may actually
make them grow better for next year.
I am disappointed though that the crows got what looks like nearly a 1/4 of
my white corn in the big field.
I'm going to have to do some spot re-planting.
On an up note though, my okra is coming up really good now.

Damn, crows! We've had the problem replanting grass for grazing. Not necessarily crows, though, but just all kinds of birds. We need a scarecrow! Even the dogs didn't help keep the birds away (lazy fucks).

I've tried birds, and animals.
Not my cup of tea.
I'll stick with plants, and trade with friends.
I have friends and family that do....
eggs, chickens pigs, goat, and cows,
so I'm not as inclined to farms those myself.
There are a lot of wild birds here though...quall, mallard ducks, wood ducks,
Canadian geese...
Large Gray cranes, and smaller white cranes...
and then just regular birds, like finches, cardinals, humming birds,
blue birds, blue jays, brown thrashers,
crows, owls, hawks, and several types of woodpecker including redheaded.
oh and condors (vultures)
