Dill Pickles

Picked up this old hand written recipe for Dill Pickles that was given to my grandfather back in '64 by a guy who had gotten it from his grandmother. Needless to say it's old.


I'm doing my best to read the old cursive script on old faded paper.

If the pickles actually come out half-way decent I'll post it. It it's awesome then I'll keep it secret and live off the sale of pickles.

Odds are I'll be posting it but it will be a pain to transcribe so I'm not gonna do it now.

Early May

Picked up a few plants from the Southeast School plant sale (early edition) Got a few lettuce, peas, etc.. Already had these planted so it was most just to donate. I did however get some Green Globe Artichokes which I planted. Have never done those before.

Got the beginnings of the drip irrigation system setup. Looks to be working well so far.

Temps are getting warmer and hopefully we've passed the point of frost now. Some cucumbers I planted about 10 days ago got hit with some cold weather judging by their leaves which are now all burnt. But I had many extra seedlings I had started as part of the massive seedling project so I'll replace those in the next couple days.
