Been trying to do that "one job each day" rule, it has worked well for me but gone slack more recently. Have some supplier issues that is holding things up and giving me grief.
I got some local WA grown garlic to plant, so hopefully it has not been sprayed like any imported stuff needs to be. But I also planted some garlic seedling from bunnings, Diggers club "Garlic Cream" and "Garlic Dynamite". They will be interesting, see if I can get a nice crop
I'm thinking capsicum and chillies in the last new raised garden bed but apparently still to early for them.
Checked the raised garden bed with the broad beans this evening and see some sprouted, but not the peas.
I can't justify growing brown onions, they are cheap to buy. Jase grows carrots which IMO are not worth growing but he likes the convenience of having them available to pick when ever.
I have not used white onions in memory, they are not cheap so worth growing them if you use them. I was tempted to plant red onions as they are not cheap, but the French shallots are a better alternative if not better. Last 2 years I have had a poor French shallot harvest so hope to get a good one this year
Now that I have a heap of juvenile and smaller marron, I'll be looking to catch and cook some of the bigger marron when an occasion arises in the near future
Walnuts are great, I would have my son make a walnut liqueur
I'm disappointed with myself for not dealing with the roosters myself, the gold laced wyandottes are a good meat bird. I'm just not equipped to kill and dress them. Mr Fig Jam can dress a lamb in 10 minutes so should be easy work for him
