The last of the rows are made for the garlic, now I just have to shove 3000+ cloves in the ground. With it freezing at nights I need to be cautious of getting the rows covered once planted, so I need to do it in a ordered fashion. Thankfully the tree dumped more needles around hte farm so I might have enough to cover all the rows once planted. Today begins the process and I hope I can get 1/3 in the ground.

After the fiasco in the morning with the car battery and logistics my mid day was taken with garden work. The cucumbers all came out of the greenhouse and the sheep were quite happy for the nibblins. The garlic area is now expanded and just needs raking then dibble rolling today and will be ready to plant. 3000 cloves need to get in the ground in the next days....

3500+ cloves of garlic are ready for planting, BUT I only plan to plant 3000 of them... Seriously took 9 hours to break the mall apart by myself. I need to make another tilled area that will handle the 700 from 4 varieties. The rain is done for some days so I have a bit of time to work with.

OMG I'm still sore this morning from the 7 hours of garlic breaking yesterday. 18 of the 22 varieties are now in single cloves and I have over 2650 so far that will need to be planted. My dibble roller worked like a charm and I now need to find where I will need to till for hte other 700 spots I need...

The sunrise yesterday was amazing. The colors were crazy cool and I got a shit ton of shots as I drove home with the grain. So much driving during the day back and forth to town. Tested out the Garlic Dibble Roller and it works great, just the soil needs to be moist to keep the holes from collapsing on themselves. Got treated to a huge rainbow as we waited to pickup wife at her work.

One hell of a workout yesteerday felling trees. Got the 2 smaller fully done and limbed up the 40 footer about halfway. The trailer was full so I will be going back to take the big one down. The sheep and alpaca are stoked on the extra nibblins.

That was quite the job today and I'm not done yet. 2 trees down, limbed the lower half of the biggest and got the trailer packed which will be getting dumped in the sheep pen. Have to finish the big tree likely Sunday. The golfers weren't too pleased with my chainsaw... Lol
