No mater when you start them you can't get them in the ground until it is ready. If They get too big even in the GH they will outgrow their space if not enough. Its a balancing act for sure. I still end up buying plants every year due to loss.  Always seems that the stuff I start from seeds in the ground is the heartiest. I put in my strawberries today as I totally gutted the patch and started over. 60 plants 

Nice going Clint. I'm pretty much outside sunrise till sunset now. Put some of my pickle cukes, zucchini and regular cuke plants in tonight. Currently, 12 pickle , 6 regular and 12 zucchini in the ground. Still have 24 pepper plants to go in and bunch more herbs. My leftover plants are 16 tomato and 12 squash I need to find a home for.
Garlic is cranking. I planted them last fall.

Picked up 250 more lbs pig feed. 200lbs mash and 50 lbs cracked corn. $40.00 out the door. It should last 4-5 weeks.
Also working the firewood pile tonight . Split another cord . My pile is not gonna cut it this winter. About 3.5 cord. Mostly white oak .50% standing dead, not rotten.
Can probably scab another cord in the woods but they are getting thick.

Can't wait to see some of the fruits of our labors

Rich I'll stand corrected but Pigs do not sweat and with very little hair they need to keep cool by "wallowing" in the mud. Also helps with the bugs. My neighbor would play a garden hose in a area of his 'piggery' making a wetspot and it wasn't long before the pigs rooted out thier own mud hole which of course needs to be kept wet. Problem is, they keep it wet too and it can become a bit odiferous. Didn't stop the pigs from dumping the troughs either, little darlings root under everything. I see you reinforced along the bottom of your fence, good idea. May even consider a small fencer and run wire around the bottom inside. Don't need high tensil wire and do not buy a "high impedence" or a unit made for "miles" of fence thinking the bigger the better.

Congrats on the size of your hogs, I smell the bacon cooking already.

Thanks for the replies.
They seem to do their crapping in 1 area away from the food and shelter. I've been able to use straw and rake then compost the waste twice but the wet weather is taking a toll on the 30X30 foot square.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to put legs on the trough to keep them from climbing in.
Probably over thinking things .

somebody call???  

Boy do I know that feeling

I whish my dog was that gentle. He is  a brute, although he tolerates the chickens it is only sometimes. They have learned to stay out of his ropes length

It's been a sow week due to the heat. I have one more planting of corn, beans and peas next week to stagger them so I don't get everything at once. I opened up another 1/4 acre. For next year for corn and 1/4 acre for some fruit trees in the fall, just trying to level it out so I can mow between them.  pig is getting big. Strawberries are doing pretty good. Unfiltered outside spigot is in so I don't plug my house filters with watering garden.  I am shocking my well today due to iron bacteria so no water for a day. Back to work next week to rest. On a side note a POSSIBLE trip to Ontario in August may be shaping up

Man I wish I had some equipment here. Most everything I do has to be done by manual labor. Thankfully I at least have a lot splitter and atv.
Yesterday evening was garden detail. Today will be all firewood all day as I think I have a helper at least he better help if he wants to burn wood this winter.

Here are a few pictures on how the garden is progressing. Still some more to do but it's a good start.

Man I wish I had your kind of energy. lol.

Building/planting raised gardens, planting fruit trees, creating a mini-piggery and raising two hogs, splitting fire wood and maintaining an inground pool??? Speaking of hogs let's not forget those stripers.

Gardens look good HT and those pigs sure are getting big. I can see it now, BBQ pork steaks, grilled veggies, blackened striper...... when's the pool party, buddy? 😜

😮DAM neighbor that's a little to close for my liking.

I split what was on the ground this morning until my helper showed up. He did , thankfully , and we got 4 more loads. Time to hit the pool.

Fyi, pool party is set for independence day. I'll be hauling a ton of clams back from Rhode island and it's gonna be a rager

Ok things are as best they can be for awhile.
I will be fishing pretty hard until July 4th from here on out, no more weekends at the house.
Delivered about a cord of cut & split wood this morning, for free, why me ..
Cut , split ,stacked another 2 cord here for me :).
Pulled camper out of hibernation and all good there. Did a little mowing, a little gardening and burned a bunch junk wood.

Geesh, I'm actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow and get paid ,,,, not !!
I need a retirement job

Well summer has begun 6 hours on the tractor and counting

So much to be done.
Update. Been picking various lettuce, radish, spinach and herbs.
Garden is rocking but we are in a semi drought. My rain barrels are empty from watering.
Pigs are getting phat.
Without a breeze, so is their stink.
