Eggshells In The Garden
There has been a lot of debate recently in the gardening world around adding eggshells to the garden.
One of the arguments against it is that eggshells take years to break down.
I hopefully have years of gardening left. (grins)
I don’t approach the building of soil as a quick process. Heck, leaves takes two years to break down completely and they are AWESOME at building healthy soil.
Building great soil takes time.
Another argument is that eggshells can add bad stuff like salmonella to the garden.
I add eggshells at the END of the growing season. 4 or 5 or more months will pass before I plant in that soil. By then, the threat of salmonella is long gone.
I also place compost, a thick layer of leaves and some coffee grounds on top of the crushed eggshells (mostly to discourage Rocky The Raccoon from digging in the bed). That adds more barriers.
The benefits of crushed eggshells outweigh the downsides for me.
They are a great source of calcium and other nutrients. They are natural. The worms love them. Placing eggshells in the garden keeps them out of the landfill. And they are absolutely free.

Preparing The Garden For Next Year
We rarely (as in once every 10 years or so) purchase fertilizer or amendments for our gardens.
We don’t need to do this. We’re fortunate that nature provides everything we need.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I prep the vegetable gardens in the Fall/Autumn.
The first layer is a sprinkle of crushed eggshells. This goes on the bottom of the prep lasagne as to ensure it doesn’t attract Rocky the Raccoon or other critters. Eggshells are a long term investment. They take a while to break down. But we plan to have a garden for a long while so we’re okay with waiting. (smiles)
The next layer is compost made from kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, leaves and other yard waste.
Then we add a knee deep layer of leaves. Leaves are super rich in minerals and nutrients. They are GOLD for the garden and are the main reason why we don’t need additional fertilizer or amendments. We wet the leaves and we place large sticks on top of the beds to keep the leaves in place.
The final layer consists of coffee grounds we obtain from nearby coffee shops.
That’s it! (smiles)
The garden beds ‘rest’ all winter. They are covered with snow, are rained on, dried out, frozen, thawed.
And by spring, the leaves have turned into a layer of mulch, the coffee grounds and compost are neutralized and the beds are ready to plant in!

Gardening – Sleepy Bees
It is getting cooler in my corner of the universe. And that means many insects are searching for places to warm up and places to sleep.
We spotted this cute little bumblebee sleeping on one of our zinnia flowers. She is being warmed by the sun’s rays.
The squash and zucchini/courgette flowers are favorite places for bumblebees and other bees to sleep. Almost every flower is occupied by at least one bee every morning.
And the sunny side of our brick home draws many insects like this little dragonfly. Did you know dragonflies are older than the dinosaurs? They truly are tiny dragons. (smiles.)

Gardening – Gathering The Leaves
It is Fall/Autumn in my corner of the universe. The leaves on the trees are turning brilliant yellows and oranges and reds. They’re gorgeous. It is like living temporarily on a magical alien planet. (smiles)
Soon, those leaves will fall to the ground. We have HUGE trees and the leaves, if not gathered, will reach my knees or higher.
They have to be gathered. They do NOT have to be sent to the city for composting (or worse, to be placed in the landfill – grimaces).
All those leaves contain valuable minerals and nutrients. When broken down into leaf mold (a ‘composting’ process that requires merely leaves and a little bit of water and time), those minerals and nutrients can be returned to garden beds to feed vegetables, flowers and other plants.
Gather your leaves and HOARD them. They are extremely valuable. Don’t throw that wealth away!

Gardening – Dividing The Irises
Every four years, the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I dig up the irises and divide them. If we don’t complete this big job, the irises suffer and often stop flowering. Plus…we get more irises when we do this! (grins)
This was the year! We dug them up and split them, which often required cracking the rhizomes into half. Then we replanted them. We should have double the number of irises next year.
Eventually, we’ll run out of room in the bed.
Which is why you don’t need to buy iris rhizomes. If you ask around (in the Fall/Autumn), you’ll likely discover that many of your neighbors have been forced to throw away iris rhizomes they no longer have space to plant! They will happily give you some.

Trimming The Roses
The forecast for October is hot and the roses are growing wildly. (grins) I had to trim them back or they’d take over the yard.
Having had some recent luck with burying pruned rose branches and sprouting new rose plants from that, I have decided to bury the branches I trimmed in the rose bush bed. I’m trying to fill out some bald spots.
I don’t know if it will work but it is worth a try. Gardening often means experimenting. That’s part of the fun. (smiles)

Gardening – Eggplant Harvest
This was our first year growing eggplant and we had some adventures. (grins)
We started the plants late as we had a tough time finding seeds. (We’ve already stocked next year’s seeds, having learned this lesson). Then when the plants were about calf high, the wild bunny ate every single plant down to their very stems.
We put cages around those stems and lowered our expectations for the eggplant harvest. I didn’t think we’d get ANY eggplants. The Dear Wonderful Hubby was more optimistic.
I am happy to say… I was wrong. We have a LOT of eggplants on the plants and the weather forecast is heat and sun for October so they should grow to harvest size.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I LOVE eggplant and we’ll definitely grow it again next year!

The Cool Is Coming For The Garden
The nights in my corner of the world are experiencing temperatures lower than 10C/50F.
The peas and cauliflower are loving the coolness.
The rest of the garden?
Not-so-much.
I’m preparing to take the mini bell pepper plants, the oregano, the geraniums, and the begonia inside the house to overwinter. That means pruning them back, taking them out of their outside soil, washing the plants off, and replanting them in inside (hopefully gnat-free) soil.
They will be semi-dormant during the winter and won’t look very pretty. But they should survive and be ready to flourish again in the spring.

Gardening – Harvesting Mini Bell Peppers
The harvest is happening in my part of the world. In the Sax backyard, we’re harvesting tomatoes, green beans, some butternut squash and a gazillion mini bell peppers.
These mini bell peppers were started from seeds we harvested from grocery store-bought mini bell peppers. They start green and then mature into three vivid colors – red, orange and yellow. The color doesn’t indicate heat or flavor. They’re all sweet.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I LOVE them. And we plan to overwinter some plants inside the home. We’ve harvested more seeds and will plant those if the overwintering doesn’t work well.

Gardening – Saving Seeds
It is Autumn/Fall-like weather in my corner of the universe. And that means the time for seed saving is nearing an end.
I’ve cracked open dried radish pods and saved those seeds. Pepper seeds have been dried from the peppers we’ve eaten. Tomato seeds from our ‘best’ plants have been fermented and dried. Marigold flowers were deadheaded. Those deadheads were dried and then cracked open to harvest the seeds (I have a plastic takeout container filled with them).
I try to harvest as many different types of seeds as possible. This ensures the plants evolve to flourish in my specific environment. And I am guaranteed to have seeds for the next year. Sometimes there are seed shortages.
Plus these seeds are free! That’s the best price going. (grins)
I store the seeds in airtight takeout containers. I use large meal containers for vast numbers of seeds (like the marigolds) and small sauce containers for the smaller collections. I store them over the winter in our cool, dark, dry basement.
I always feel a little more relaxed when I have harvested seeds. They represent hope for the future.

Drift Would
A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.
***
Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.
The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.
When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.
She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.
Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.
Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.
A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.
She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.

Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
