Clean your containers well at the end of the growing season. This prevents the spread of disease, can kill eggs laid by bugs, and in the spring they’ll be ready to use when you need them.

Great way to spend a mild but rainy day. You can also organize all your empty plastic plant containers and perhaps discard the odd or cracked ones (they can be recycled). Clean and organize your tools and prep area while you are at it. I love working in my open-air barn with the rain pitter pattering on the metal roof. I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. \| Quote \| Post #479489 (1)

I do like it. We get a lot of rain in the fall/winter but it doesn't get unbearably cold and is usually mild enough to work comfortably outdoors if you can stay dry. I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. \| Quote \| Post #479841 (3)
