Beautiful view

Thanks for showing how to cut your dahlias - and I am dealing with bug damage too! I bought net bags to put over some so we'll see how that goes.

This year has been the worst for me.

This year definitely hasn't been ideal. I'm making more money off of my pressed flower items than I am from fresh flowers. Pressing the flowers is more work but I can make frames and bookmarks over the winter to have a decent inventory for next year. I can also try selling them online. Thus isn't what I expected my flower farm experience to be but you have to go with the flow I guess. Good luck with the rest of your season!

I’m hearing a lot of people saying they are having success with flower crafts. Good luck to you too!

Those dahlia are pretty ❤ what do you amend your soil with?

[@freshcutflowerfarm]

I buy bulk compost. I try to fertilize with an all purpose fertilizer but I’m honestly terrible at remembering to do it.
