Journal Entry 2016-01-14

Gardening in Middle Tennessee
Lunch [Note: presumably this entry was written during lunch while at work.]
CHICKENS
 Ordered feed and waterer for baby chicks last night. "Fancy" chicken tractor costs $350.  I know I can cut some costs.

4x10 = 40 sq. ft. Could I make a 4x10 foot brooder that would become the base of my chicken tractor? Or do I need a dedicated brooder anyway?
  • 6x8 brooder for ~25 chicks
  • 4x12 brooder for ~25 chicks
  • 4x10 would be ok for a week or two

Journal Entry 2014-01-07

Gardening in Middle Tennessee

Hope it warms up soon.  I’m feeding the birds.  I bet Mr. Cardinal and his lady wish they had migrated this year.  Woodpeckers and something with a greenish yellow belly are visiting, also, along with our local squirrel family.

The New Year always brings the desire to start tomato seedlings.  Still two months before I should start them!  Especially since this might be an extra-long winter.

Unusually cold winter - cold vortex, as they are saying on the radio.  Extra cold everywhere.  In the negatives in Nevada.  Down to one degree F this week here in TN.  If it doesn't kill the trees, should be a great year for peaches and apples.

DO NOT START TOMATOES!

Journal Entry 2013-01-05

Gardening in Middle Tennessee
12:48 pm Nashville
I am so excited - it looks like I may have found some dirt to play in while I am temporarily landless.  Jessica has been visiting and we visited the Oaklands antebellum home.  They have a small garden with plants from the Civil War time period.  Right up my alley.  So looking forward to it, both for the learning and the doing.  So many things to research.  Their master gardener is Connor Moss.
