The artichokes have gotten their first set of 'true' leaves so a while ago I potted them in 3 inch peat pots.
Then filled the tray with about 1/2 inch of water and let the pots soak up the water on their own.
Our most recent excitement around here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : Our Guineas have started laying! It has been rather cold out so we did not expect them to begin laying till it was actually spring!! So you can imagine my surprise when traveling out to see why it was almost ten o'clock and they still had not ventured out of the barn, I found an egg! Daddy was loading the truck here so I ran to show him. Then taking it back to the barn we found that there were a total of six eggs!! Near as I can tell there are only two guinea hens and the rest are males so they have probably been laying for three days when we found them. Today we got two more eggs! The first six I put in a laying box and left them in there to see if I can get both hens to lay in the same place. That is why they have black marks on them (so we can tell them apart from the new eggs). Tomorrow morning we will eat the two laid today! Will have to let you know how they taste and if they taste any different than chicken eggs!
