The tomatoes in the one and two liter bottles needed either more space or to be cut back and trained to grow smaller. I chose not to train them just to see what happened but I only got one tomato. I'm going to … [Read more...]

Donna’s Gardens – Vegetable Garden July 2012
Something is growing in one of the square foot garden beds and perhaps is the reason plants are not growing well in the one bed. I also have uninvited "visitors" in the garden.

I work up quite an appetite though and go through water like a hydroelectric dam. My body craves salt and I drink Gatorade to replenish … [Read more...]
