Help!
In the sentence, "At rejse er at leve." is the "At" in the beginning of the sentence pronounced differently that the "at" near the end of the sentence?
Online, Den Danske Ordbog stated that "at' is pronounced [ʌ] og "i begyndelsen af en sætning også [ad]"
Tak!
Rødbederne plantede jeg om 1. september ser gode ud!
I'm sure I butchered this one. I'm trying to say, " The beets I planted on September 1st look good."

I had a feeling 'i morges' put it in the past tense.
What time designation would I use if I am currently planting them, now, and it is still in the morning?
I morges planter jeg hestebønner (to slags -- 'Broad Windsor' og 'Sweet Lorane').
Dagens solnedgang. Wauw!

I just got my order of seed garlic from Siskiyou Seeds (located in Williams, Oregon). I am very pleased with the quality of this garlic!

How's THAT for a rugbrød starter!
I think one of the problems was the room temperature. The recipe I used recommended a temperature between 23 og 25 grader. Our house is rarely above 20 grader this time of year.
I think I'm going to try another recipe as I had to add a LOT more buttermilk to get the starter somewhere close to the proper consistency.
I think I have this closer to being correct, thanks to the help of a couple of people replying to my initial post. (Mange tak!)
The original recipe I am trying calls for 200g rye flour and 200ml of buttermilk. I increased the amount of buttermilk to 350ml to get this consistency.
Jeg laver mit første rugbrød! I dag laver jeg "the starter."
Er det supposed to be this thick og chunky? 😬
Snegle ('slugs') ødelægger mine unge salatplanter. I have heard (and read), for years, that putting out small plates of øl will attract them and then drown them. I happened to have a can of IPA to use as bait. The slugs were not interested at all. I get it.
Er fiskeri populær i Danmark?
If so, what species of fisk do danskere usually try to catch?
Tak!

Mine rødbedere ser sund ud.

Et spørgsmål --
I think (hope) I wrote, "My beets look healthy."
Though, in English, I would more likely write "My beets are looking healthy."
How would most danskere comment on the appearance of something like this?
"My beets look healthy" eller "My beets are looking healthy."
Tak!

I haven't planted a Fall garden since the early 1990s and since the climate in Western Oregon is so different, now, most of the old guidelines on timing don't work, anymore. 🙁
I'm preparing this little bed for lettuce, beets, chard, and carrots. Way back when, I could have done this in early to mid-August but now it's too damn hot, even into mid-September.
We'll see what happens.

I found a nice surprise between the stacks of firewood I was chopping -- a small, very healthy Oregon White Oak (Quercus garryana). And it's in a perfect spot! I'll cut the weeds around it, mulch it, and put a cage around it so the deer will leave it alone.
We're about mid-way up this specie's North-South range (see map from Wikipedia, below) so it should do okay as the summers continue to heat up and get dryer.
"The emerald ash borer, an invasive, tree-killing beetle, is spreading across Oregon and devastating ash tree populations"
"Oregon has its own native ash tree, the Oregon ash, which is prevalent across the state, namely around low-lying lakes, streams and rivers. Biologists worry that losing Oregon ash will make those waterways and their ecosystems more vulnerable to climate change."
Higher temperatures degrade water quality in many ways — including increasing bacterial and algal growth, decreasing oxygen levels, and changing overall chemical profiles. That could make drinking water treatment more expensive, and it could kill fish."
"Forestry officials expect Oregon will lose up to 99% of its ash trees to this pest over time."
I can't even imagine. 😢
