After the concrete work, some harvesting.
Our beetroots must be delicious because someone has gnawed the tops on most of them. But there's enough left for us after cutting the toothmarks away.
@vaviurka plucked out the onions and I put them into the same drying rack as last year, under the little sauna firewood roof which gets heated by the sun and worked very well.

This week for #OverUnder 077, @alex is my guest.
He shares his thoughts about taking #notes, #LLMs, #Stoicism, #Peertube, and #beetroot..
He also replied to @writingslowly's question.
And, like every week, we got a recommendation for two #books.

Got some time to look at the garden.
Sunflowers are now taller than me and starting to grow flower heads.
Everything is quite weedy as nobody had time to deal with it, between the excessive rain and the renovation and the everything else.
Loads of garlic will be ready soon and potatoes are indicating its time to build that potato digger.
Pumpkins are conquering large areas but still not flowering.
Peas are under pressure but producing well anyways.
Beans and cucumbers are having a party and we've had enough to eat and give some away.
Second batch of radishes, meh. They just don't love it there.
Still some beetroots in the soil, which are huge by now. A few are going to flower for next years seeds.

Wishful thinking, or hopeful oucomes? Maybe credible outcomes no matter the stupidity of an electorate…
“One Nation will never be able to turn resentment into a credible policy – and if the Coalition continues following it deeper into an imported culture war – both will end up withering on the vine for a long time to come.”

This morning's job: Dig up some food.
Beetroots for preserving, new potatoes for lunch.
The first new potatoes are always super yummy.

These look ready.

Mostly organic vegetables 🥗 🍅

I gave the cucumbers some breathing room. A pot of beets is cooking. There was a white one, that I verified did smell like a beet, and some of the striped ones, along with all the ones that are suppose to be Detroit dark red beets. There's more but these were the biggest ones shading the cucumbers.

Potato field cleaned up a bit. A lot of grass came through in the back, no wonder as this was an overgrown area until this spring. In the front, more thistles than grass :)
However, the potatoes are doing great. Almost all of them grew, only very few gaps got replanted from the backup pots.
On the left are some pumpkins, which actually did germinate in the end, it just took them ages, so I spread them around the mounds.
Oh, and one row of beetroot, which had some trouble, but enough of them made it. Might spread them around a bit, but they have very deep roots already and are difficult to replant.
Got some good rain last night, soaking the soil and filling the barrel.

Well rats! It looks like I'll have to plant my #beets in the #CommunityGarden, since I'm growing #Chard in the home garden. Oh well..

The #Beetroot Family
"Wind-pollinated members of the Beet Family have very light pollen and need up to 2 to 5 miles for safe distance isolation. Chard and beets are in the same species (Betula vulgaris) and must be isolated from each other or they will cross. Different Beet Family species will not cross-pollinate, so that one beet or chard, one quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa), one red (Chenopodium giganteum) and one white (C. alba) lamb's quarters, one orach (Atriplex hortensis) and one spinach (Spinacia oleracea) can all be grown together without danger of crossing.
"You can bag or cage varieties of the same species for isolation, but techniques vary depending on whether the species will self-pollinate or not. Quinoa and lamb's quarters are self-pollinating, so large paper bags can simply be fastened over individual seed heads for protection from cross-pollination. Since quinoa and lamb's quarters produce many small seed heads up and down their stems, mark the protected seed heads so that you can tell them from unprotected ones at harvest time.
"Beets, chard, orach and spinach will not pollinate themselves. These plants need to be caged or bagged in groups so that they can pollinate each other. At least 10 or more plants should be included in each cage or bag for adequate cross-pollination, and to help insure that there are twice as many female as male plants.
"Bags or cages need to be windproof to prevent intermingling of the very light pollens. Shake the plants together within their bags or cages regularly, to help the pollen mix move around inside the cage/bag for good pollination. "

Watson, you have the gift. Your breakfast is so much pleasanter than Mrs Hudson's. Nourishing but light. It's hard to get the balance right. Those fried beetroot slices are a stroke of genius, Watson.

Beetroot borscht (locally known as botwinka), a spring soup, a Polish peasant borscht, cooked in broth, meat, or vegetable stock, made from young beetroot and leaves, with potatoes, and leavened with lemon juice or beetroot sourdough. Beetroot borscht is prepared in spring, when the beetroot leaves are soft and tender, and the root is still small. This is when the beetroot leaves have the most flavor and aroma.

Planted a Cherry Sweetie and Campari tomato in the ground and finished off the row with Kentucky Blue pole beans in very small cloches that are just woodlice protectors. The garlic and beets are looking good too but the beets need some more thinning it looks like.

Beetroot! Rich in fiber, vitamins, & minerals, these vibrant roots thrive in cool soil. Sow seeds directly, 2-3 inches apart, in fertile, well-drained soil. Keep moist for great germination. Enjoy a healthy, colorful harvest! 🌿🥗 #Beetroot
