I don’t grow it, but I have had two friends eat them and they described absolutely horrific hallucinations

Aww sweetie, the sun is the other way

Lol the gourd family has you covered there! Grow a loofah! Grow a tea cup! Grow a birdhouse!

Glad to hear that. My first one is almost ready I got a late start. Can’t wait to taste that beefsteak

Look at this weirdo!

Poor little guy! I don’t think you can do anything

Did your tomatoes make it?

Sorry I don’t know but I think you can get away with it. You would want to start them probably within 4 weeks, and yes use the row cover.

Ohh it’s hail! I looked at the picture before I read and I was thinking blight. I think it’s going to survive. There’s still plenty of hot summer left. Cut off the dead stuff, give a good dose of fertilizer and keep it watered. Looks like it’s watered now so I think ya it’s going to be fine.

It looks really nice and easy to manage. I’m glad to not have the Bermuda grass here but we have our own issues. Like blackberries and knotweed. Now can you walk through that hoop? And how do you use it? Is there a plastic cover for it? I love how you have opted for food instead of lawn too I wanted to say.

Mushrooms are just so neat. I’ve inoculated a log with oysters but haven’t seen any yet.

Do you really have that much mulch? The other day I was watering and I realized that the bark mulch was hydrophobic and not letting any moisture in at all. Internet said I had applied it too think maybe. So I pulled off most of it. Watered the dirt directly and immediately noticed a change in my plants. I thought bark mulch would be such a benefit but really maybe not. In the veggie beds I only use straw which seems to do a lot better but obviously doesn’t look so great for the flower beds. What kind of mulch do you use and are you having that issue at all?

That’s a great sign to see. Congratulations on your first garden! Can’t wait to see those cherry tomatoes when they ripen
