Well, I have (tragic? It is to me...) news: The snails and slugs on the grounds of Lund Manor ran rampant last night. They decimated massive numbers of new plantings.

The (death?) toll includes: 4 cucumber seedlings, 9 basil seedlings, 2 snap pea seedlings, and all 25 lettuce plantings.

No photos of the carnage; I was crying too hard to work a camera. It was truly a sad morning at Lund Manor...

Is that going to be a year-round thing; or is it just the season for it?

You've probably seen my AeroGarden. That's just a kind of fun kitchen counter or living room accessory. Here's a link to the real deal. If you have a room in your house that you can dedicate to it, you can extend your indoor season indefinitely and plant outside when it's safe. This is the one I'll get the latest and greatest of when I have the space.
