Recent rains brought the garden to life with all its chaos and glory. We welcome a degree of chaos when it comes to gardening. Nature does her thing, and we reap the benefits. Here’s some inspiration for your March garden madness.
Spring equinox is Thursday, March 20th, 2025. Get out there and enjoy your March garden madness. Next up: summer!
Speaking of stinging nettles – did you ever try the stinging nettle tea fertilizer/foliage spray that nice tomato lady from Willow Farms in Paso Robles you had on your podcast told you about?
We have used stinging nettle tea to try stopping powdery mildew and blight and, while I recall that it did slow down powedery mildew, I don’t remember seeing enough success (eliminating it) to try again. But I suppose a good scientific approach would be to test it for several years and record the results. I’ll have to put that on the To-Do List.
