No dig gardening, October 23, 2024. A few plants continue to blossom for the pollinators. This is a renegade bok choi. The garlic bed is getting mulched with both leaf mulch and duck bedding. This is a satisfying gardening milestone. The garlic planting will wait for colder weather. #garlic, #nodig, #pollinators, #minnesota, #ClimateDiary.

@Pollinators It’s always good to get the job of mulching the beds done and out of the way.

I’m putting off planting the garlic and the broad beans and field beans here until the weather shows some sign of getting colder.

It’s t-shirt weather here still.

Our forecast temperatures for the first week of November is still 7°C-13°C.

@Broadfork. We have a Tuesday forecast of 27 C and 15 C as the low. That’s not garlic planting temperatures at all either. We got permission to gather the neighbor’s leaves so we can place more mulch in the vegetable garden. #compost, #minnesota, #garlic.

@Pollinators Go on, scare me. What temperatures would you realistically expect around now?

Earlier today I tooted about bonfire night (November 5th) being a time of good childhood memories but those memories were all framed by cold weather, of frost and icy winds, of woolly hats and gloves, getting home and sitting in front of the gas fire to warm ourselves up.

At this rate November 5th could well be t-shirt weather this year. #ClimateDiary

@Broadfork. The forecast for October 29th is also the average for July 17th. Which is the summer peak. The expectation for the average Tuesday forecast would be 0 C and 13 C.

@Broadfork. An infographic would show that more graphically.
