| MarkDude | morning akk | 16:48 |
| MarkDude | I have some plants I am getting rid of | 16:48 |
| MarkDude | You cant make to picnic on 16th can you? | 16:48 |
| MarkDude | I have humming bird plant and others | 16:48 |
| MarkDude | How are the berries doing? | 16:49 |
| akk | Sadly, no, will definitely be in LA on the 16th. | 16:49 |
| akk | The gooseberry is growing and looking really healthy, putting out berries ... but the berries are smaller than they should be and really concentrated. | 16:50 |
| akk | So it's not totally happy yet, but it's doing okay. | 16:50 |
| MarkDude | Takes a bit, to find the right spot for them | 16:50 |
| akk | (That reminds me, need to water it this morning before it gets too hot) | 16:50 |
| MarkDude | I have some in different parts of my yard now | 16:51 |
| MarkDude | at least 10 plants | 16:51 |
| MarkDude | a few should be in the right space- I find less water is good for them | 16:51 |
| akk | Oh, the seedlings are looking good too. They're about 8" tall now (except one in a tiny pot which is still about 1.5", so maybe I need to repot that one). | 16:53 |
| MarkDude | They are pretty tough | 16:56 |
| MarkDude | I have some in very small containers- they are patient- since they can live many years | 16:56 |
| MarkDude | They should survive any frosts we have | 16:56 |
| MarkDude | at least most | 16:57 |
| * MarkDude will have salsa with them this Summer | 16:57 | |
| MarkDude | come hell or high water :D | 16:57 |
| akk | I doubt I'll get enough for salsa any time soon ... but it's fun to pop a berry into my mouth every now and then. | 16:58 |
| MarkDude | It is | 17:01 |
| MarkDude | This year I have 3 cherry tomotoes | 17:01 |
| MarkDude | Just able to go eat a few at a time now | 17:02 |
| MarkDude | Makes me feel like a hunter-gatherer | 17:02 |
| akk | yeah, exactly :) | 17:03 |
| akk | I love walking out to the garden, picking something and eating it | 17:03 |
| akk | sugar peas are great that way (I don't have any this year, though) | 17:04 |
| MarkDude | Its weird how eating tomatoes when it is 100 degrees taste so good | 17:04 |
| akk | I only have one tomato so far -- and something has already eaten a hole in it, just when it's getting close to ripe. :( | 17:05 |
| MarkDude | My birds are not eating them- so Iam happy | 17:06 |
