- Make cuttings
- Wash all pots and flats before storing for winter
- Submerse all plants before bringing in for winter
- Cut back all plants and spray down with water
- Isolate plants and watch for bugs after a summer outside
- Collect ripened seed for reseeding annuals and store in refrigerator after drying
- Buy a bale of straw for covering plants when ground freezes. Use for fall decoration in meantime.
- Collect soybean seeds for next year crop when dry on vines
- Dead head the ugly stuff and let the flowering kale give its show for fall.
- Place remaining pots of flowering kale in bare spots
- Rake and dispose of black walnut leaves rather than compost. Do the same with shells the squirrels have left in garden.
- Enjoy the last beautiful days of the season with a beer in the lawn chair as often as possible.
A bit of gardening, a bit of memories, and a bit of life. I started an on-line garden journal for myself, but I hope it also gives something to others who read it. Thank you for all your kind encouragement.
