I may not be much of a farmer, but I can stand back and watch wild grape hyacinths grow as well as anybody. The honeybees seem to enjoy them particularly. #wildflowers #corn #spring

Corn Harvest
#Ants #Corn #Farm #Harvest #HiddenPictures #illustratione #MastoArt

On an upbeat note, it's almost time to plant corn. 🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽
My #lupine cover crop kinda failed, but I have a bag of chicken poop, so I'll be good. I just need a way to keep topsoil/mulch/water from running off: my soil is notably taller from adding shit to it in the #corn patch. I'm wondering about that icky plastic edging.
I plant in the hellstrip, so there's a lot of edge. Do I start a blog to record progress? It would 100% have #alamtg stuff too...
For the record, corn is a pita.
With a lot of my Summer plants dying back at this time of year - tomatoes, zucchini, pumpkin, - it's nice to have one crop looking its best right now. There will be popcorn!
This is a mini black popcorn variety from Koanga Gardens' seed catalogue. I grew it last year and really enjoyed it so this year I planted even more.

USDA 10-year outlook: Inflation, extreme weather, supply chain disruptions, input costs & Russia's war pushed commodity #prices up. Domestic demand for #corn, #soybeans, #wheat & cotton expected to grow. #Exports of the crops also are expected to increase: https://www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves/2023/february/declining-crop-prices-rising-production-and-exports-highlight-u-s-agricultural-projections-to-2032
US farmers are aiming to boost #corn acreage in 2023 as fertilizer prices ease. A bumper crop would be useful after a late season #drought in 2022 withered the grain harvest and left US corn supplies near a decade low.

Today #Gardeners can tour Sid's #Macon, #Georgia #Cottage w/ an #Herb #Garden, #Cobblestone paths, & #Sundial.
Struck by the “#Beauty of #Cornfields & #Farms,” Sid wrote a beloved #Poem about #Corn.
In #Trees & the Master, he wrote of Jesus at Gethsemane:
"But the #Olives, they were not blind to Him,
The little gray #Leaves were kind to Him.
The #Thorn-tree had a mind to Him
When into the #Woods He came."




Last nights #dinner journey. We made #vegan #tacos el pastor. The filling is shredded king #mushroom and shredded #baked #tofu that marinated in Trader Joe’s truffle #BBQ #sauce. We also made some charred #corn and sautéed black beans, an some pico de gallo.
I built my tacos with vegan cheese shreds at the bottom, filling, corn and beans, and topped with the pico.
So freaking #yummy

Where did the time go? Where did I go?
1. I spent some time hanging out with my friend Major. My hands are in my pockets in every picture. Major can be a bit rough when nibbling on my hands... which I want to keep.
2. I made #Homemade #Tortillas from scratch. I get my #Organic whole #Corn from Great River Organic Milling... #Nixtamalization... make dough... press and cook... yummm!

#Esquites:
Depending on where in #Mexico you are, and who you are with "esquites" can be a little different.. but the base ingridient is #corn kernels, best if white savoury (but doable with yellow sweet) boiled, grilled or roasted with onion and some species. After cooked one can add lime, chilli powder, mayo.. or if you are wrong about things sour cream and salty cheese 😜


You think of two things when you think of the #autumn season, with the first one being, for me, the #colourful foliage in reds and golds and the second is that it is #harvest time. I love seeing a #cornfield that is ready for harvesting with the lovely browns of the stalks and leaves. This image gives me both!

Innovative Project Is Growing Crops Beneath #SolarPanels in #Kenya
"...By combining the land dedicated to solar panels with the land dedicated to agriculture, it is possible to avoid some of these pitfalls. Growing plants beneath elevated solar panels protects them from the sun in hot, dry places and helps the soil retain moisture, the University of Sheffield explained. The strategy has worked successfully in Global North countries like France, Germany and the U.S., but has not been tested in the Global South, according to SEI and The Guardian.So far, the results have been promising, The Guardian reported.
In Kajiado, #cabbages cultivated under 180, 345-watt solar panels were a third larger and healthier than the control group. #Eggplants, #lettuce and #corn also fared better in the panels’ shade."

Let's have some more #corn updates! It's not just corn, of course - my "three sisters" patch is literally in full bloom now. As well as the first ears of corn appearing, I have flowers on the beanstalks and my first pumpkin flower too!
Due to the corn maturing at incredibly different rates, I've been out there hand-pollinating the corn each morning. I have three stalks with various sized ears now, all starting to grow nicely.
Small #corn update, everything is growing well. One stalk is starting to show signs of maturity, and the pumpkin leaves are getting huge. Beans are throwing themselves all over the place, having a great time.
I also impulse purchased some cucumber seedlings without any idea where I was going to plant them, so I've put a trellis up at the back and will try growing them up on that. Didn't have anywhere else to put them really.
Realised it's been a while since a #corn update. My little cornfield is well established now. Tallest stalk is up to about waist height.
The two pumpkins are spreading out nicely and providing great ground cover and stopping the ground from drying out in direct sun.
Most of the beans have got started wrapping around some corn, but they're getting a bit ahead of some of the smaller stalks. Maybe should have waited a week or two longer on planting those.
