Going to plant all of these babies and go with the three strongest.   Tuesday, April 18 View Page Started 14 plants, although I’m only keeping 3 or 4 of the most vigorous. 4- 603 Kenneally 3- 822 Dill/ MacDonald 3- 497 Dill 2- 1133 Yohe 1- 829 C. Ansems 2- 675 Maydan* x Blue Moon offspring F1   Tuesday, April 18 View Page Too soon?   Wednesday, May 31 View Page I was tilling today and struck what I thought was a tree root. Instead I found this thing. Asking around, the loose consensus is a part of a farm implement, possibly for haying, but I don’t know.   Thursday, June 1 View Page I added about 17 yards, five or take, of aged compost to the patch. This plant is a late edition 497 Dill that deserves a shot.   Thursday, June 1 View Page These two “divas” are both 822 Dills which should throw nice orange. Only one is staying. They were the fastest growers by far but don’t like the heat very much.   Thursday, June 1 View Page Mother Nature must be having a hot flash. After several weeks of cold temps the warm weather finally arrived- 91 F today, 69 F tomorrow and 51 F on Saturday! Cold frames going back on I guess. This plant is a cross between a Blue Moon and an AG squash. Easily the most hardy, doesn’t seem bothered by heat or cold. Will be interesting to see what it produces.   Thursday, June 1 View Page Another 822 Dill, who like it’s sisters, doesn’t seem to like the heat. We’ll see, a back up may be needed if it doesn’t start playing ball.   Saturday, June 3 View Page Oh Mother Nature, you’re a fickle one. Two days ago it was 91 F, today the daytime high is 44 F. Cold frames back on, although I’m grateful for the rain which is very much needed.   Monday, June 5 View Page Time for some perspective. Temps only in the 50’s all week, a ton of rain and the ground is saturated, plants still in cold frames. BUT- we desperately needed the rain and it has helped with the forest fires in the Province. It’s still early and September is more like August now so I’m being an optimist.
