re: 2024 Spring Garden Thread

Looks like I'm in trouble. My wife has been babying a bunch of lettuce for the last few months. We've been able to eat 2 or 3 salads per week from it. I left her dog out in the backyard while I was mowing the front and he went HAM on them. The plants were spread over the whole back yard. He pulled then up and ate the crunchy bases. She's been out of town at her mom's the last couple of days and gets back this evening. I mulched the leaves with the mower and cleaned the beds up. I probably have two or three days before she notices if I don't tell her.

It wouldn't be a big deal but she told me that if I left him out he'd eat all the lettuce. "I told you so" is incoming.
