# manure I asked a friend for his trailer to pick up horse manure. Last year, I traded some garlic and a pumkin for the permission to pick up said manure. Last week, I finally got it all done.  ### shroom 80% sure this is the magic kind of mushroom. As it goes with mushrooms: 80% might as well mean 0%. Worth a picture, though.  ### pile of poop This pile of poop will secure next year's potato harvest. And some.  # Chippy I finally got [the chipper](/@felixxx/aaand-it-broke) back running. Only took like a month. What I've learned: - **Don't ever** buy a cheap chipper from China. Especially not second-hand. The clutch, the belt... even the bearings are all proprietary. I could get a new belt for 8€, if it was the standard A x 13mm belt. But it is 12mm for no reason, other than obsolescence. The company does not even exist anymore. Anyways, I fixed it - hope the clutch does not burn out quickly...  # uninvited guests I've always had trouble with rabbits. This year, a deer must have got into the garden to chew the bark off of my newly planted berry shrubs. Made me angry.  ### fix I hope I found the spot it used to get through the hedge. I drove 2 sticks in and hope that blocks its way.  # random updates ### raspberry Raspberry patch is looking nice. Notice all those woodchips? I made those. With my machine.  ### grapevine This is the first time, ever, I had a system when pruning this thing. It looks good for now - I hope the mildew does not get to it again.  ### voluntary garlic In [another post](/@felixxx/wood-chipper-repair), I wrote about some voluntary garlic in the spot, where I had garlic last year.  #### looking good There are some nice bulbs forming now. Still more than a month before harvest - looks very promising  ### regular garlic This is the garlic, I planted last October. I am a bit behind on the weeding, but it was so dry it made it near impossible.  ### Sweet woodruff For some reason this woodruff came back. Maybe that's a german thing, but we use it to flavour stuff. It was gone for years, but for some reason popped up again. I am very pleased with that.  # finally: rain After April was extremely dry, we finally had some rain. I was worried about my harvest and nature in general. This rain was such a relief. > _'Ist der Mai kühl und nass, füllt’s dem Bauern Scheun’ und Fass.'_ German farmer proverb. Basically: If there's rain in may - good harvest.  ### happy plants Look at that vigour:  # more rain I have the day off, but it's raining. I am not complaining, but I can't do much in the garden today. At least, I finally had the time to make a post.
