Patio plantation: progress report 5/8/25

I stay so busy, it’s hard to keep up the garden, let alone the blog. Now that I’m on vacation, maybe I can catch up a little. When I’m not in the hotel room or ship's cabin with my keyboard available, I’m going to dictate on my phone like I’m doing now. I’ve lost track of where we are with this blog, so I will go on with our status as of May 1 st . The mushrooms did OK, but we didn’t harvest them before they dried out, and we can’t use them.
