Riches Invested

I noticed Tuesday that the remains of the grass clipping pile was getting a little ripe so cut a piece of wire fence about 16ft long and made a new compost heap. Put the grass pile and all the leaves that were pictured in my last post into it. It took all but two bags of leaves and a little pile of grass and stray leaves. But the next evening it had settled enough to add those. And tonight its about 8 inches below the top of the fencing. As the compost bins finish I will use the contents of the wire pile to refill the bin.

Wow, I have stuff growing, YAY. As I was checking the beds I noticed onions and ? growing, its been 11 days since they were planted.

I have no idea what this is, but the area was planted with a French Mesclum Salad blend seed mixture, which contains a bunch of different greens.

I don't know about those greens, Oh Bearded One, They look suspiciously like the weeds I get in my composted cow poop ;-)

Yes, they could be weed. Weeds rule the earth.

Weeds are just plants that you don't want growing where they are growing. Maybe they can be eaten. LOL
