Today's post has been cancelled due to the mind set of a certain individual.

Past: After building two garden beds, Stewart had other items to do away from the house. Upon returning to the house, to his surprise, the two beds were planted. Multiple garlic cloves and some onions that my daughter had purchased were all planted.

Last night: I go out to the beds and start digging around a nice purple bulb, only to pull it out and to my dismay .......... it was an onion D'Oh! . Daughter looks at me says, "Oh that's one of my green onion that I planted. Ok, I am not bright but I do know the difference between green (white or yellow) and purple. I guess my next lesson is to be able to get my head straight and now be able to tell which area is planted with what. There are no dividing lines to speak of, just a bed of chives that I will guess at later on. I did dig around what I presumed was a garlic, only to be disappointed that there was not hardly a bulb at all at the bottom. I think it will be strike two for me trying to grow garlic.

Very bummed!
