entropy?

well there certainly hasn't been much to tell so far this autumn...
the bees are lethargic...
the temperatures are moderate ( which is fine...we will get to why in a moment )...
rainfall has been sporadic, however adequate despite the occasional need to water...which may be adding to the inertia rather than remedying it...
of the fifty odd garlic cloves i planted two weeks ago i think one is up...
and while the bed of rye has filled in fairly well...
the wheat is looking a trifle sparse...so i scrounged up some more seed...
and broadcast it into the bare areas of the bed...the seed looks to be willing and if the above mentioned moderate ( but boring ) weather holds they may actually make it...
one of the ten foot maize plants out by the teosinte has sprouted an ear of sorts...again, if the moderate weather holds, it might actually mature...i would like some viable seed...and while both teosinte and viable seed are on topic...
i have, so far, harvested upwards of five hundered zea mexicana seeds...next year's crop and some for the freezer...there may be more over the next week...there may not...things are slow.
