- Den came over yesterday and helped me move the tomato trellis.
- The little critters are growing like crazy.
- I think maybe it's the perfect trellis for 4 tomato plants, and i'm pretty much going to overstress this nifty little street-find with the 6 plants.
- getting dry quickly here - probably going to need to soak the garden on tuesday or wednesday.
- to your health!
- Was able to spend a little time in the garden this evening. Weeded the phase 2 plot, and transplanted some of the basil plants. We've had so much rain lately, the tomatoes are growing like crazy. Really need to get the tomato trellis spread out and moved before the blooms turn into fruit.
- Nate G. gave me some concrete pavers for use in my yard - now it's a matter of finding a good use for them.
- Enjoy the picture - I'm thinking of calling these 2 rows "The Ray Vondrak Memorial Basil Garden."
Here's to your health!
