Enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of first-time parenthood. Progress on the organic vegetable garden and other ramblings of a gaijin in Japan’s least populous prefecture.

First Check Of The Year

The snow didn’t last long, but it did finish off the potato plants that were coming to an end. I’ll make a start harvesting them over the coming week. There is a rumour of snow over the weekend so I took the chance to give the garden a quick tidy up. The two remaining cauliflower’s headed towards the compost stack. The heads already yellow had turned brown, if I grow cauliflower again I will cover them.
Across the other side of the patch, the onions had perked up. I did notice one that looking a little poorly and another devoid of a top. Checking the first, it looked intact, however a tug on the stem revealed it was missing it’s middle. Was this the latest ploy of the nekirimushi? Armed with my trowel, I had a dig around the sick and apprehended the two perpetrators.
