First day of yard work for me. Spread some cal/mag around the veggie beds. I've had issues with blossom end rot and it seemed to help after I applied it last year, so I'm getting it in early. Threw some leftover ferts on some of the ornamental stuff that's been here for years some irises, roses and something that gets about 4 ft tall with huge flowers IDK what they are. Cleaned all the crap I stored in the shed over winter out, dug my workhorse ride on mower out, lubed it all up and got it running. Then I topped the flowers, along with my blueberries, blackberries and fig, with compost and wood chip mulch. Tomorrow I'm hoping to get the garden beds and my mound gardens covered in compost and mulch so I can get my squashes and melons going in the next couple weeks. I'll probably throw some lettuce, broccoli and Brussel sprout seeds around if I have time.
