RE: Start Of Fall Garden Clean Up & How My Mint Transplant Is Fairing
I didn't do anything with the stalks this year. I had way too much on my plate. Maybe next year I will dry and save them for crafts or something. This was the first year I grew corn so it was an experiment for me.
Same, very much an experiment for me also. Haha, only half of my cobs developed. Not like 2 out of 4, but each cob only had 1/2 of the corn in it. This years drought did not help at all.
You know, I had a problem with that too. What is wrong with the gardening eco-system this year.
I've had problems, and heard of many others too, that the tomatoes aren't ripening... hmmm... so weird
Not sure, I know mine was mostly a water issue. Corn being such a water heavy crop, it needs to be well watered for cob development I have been told. As I mentioned we had a horrible drought in Saskatchewan this year (yet also flooding in some areas). few farms only got 1 or 2 cuts this year, and now it saddens me to see that people are having to give up some livestock because they won't have enough feed to get through the winter.
