  2. Other garden updates:
    * Definitely have something eating some of our smaller items, which is a bummer. So we planted more beets, carrots, etc. from seed, and I think I'm going to start some cabbages and other treats inside to get them further along, then transplant.

    * I got through the trunk of the first #TrumpetVine I started working on last week. Hacking that thing back brought out a violence I did not know I harbored. I also started working on the second vine (of three) and got to the point where the trunk is visible.

    * I potted up a ton of herbs a few weeks ago and they're doing great! Several basil plants were leggy and sparse... cut them back hard as an experiment, and they're thriving. Going to hit hit up one of the big box stores today or tomorrow to see if any of the remaining veg/herbs has hit the clearance rack yet.

  3. Currently on an anti-trumpet vine rampage. The former owners let three pretty thick trunks form, and in addition to those we have shoots coming out throughout the yard.

    I'm cutting them pretty far back, then trying to get to cut deep into the stump and using some of the stronger brush killer on the wound. (I typically avoid chemicals but give in for anything dangerous, like poison ivy, and aggressive.)

    But now I have a ton of trumpet vine clippings, branches, etc to dispose of. Anyone know if they can be burned in a burn pile?

    (I know trumpet vine leaves and flowers are slightly toxic but I am not sure if they let off anything noxious while burning, like poison ivy would.)
