Hello and good evening all.
Not much going on here, had a Wendy's chicken sandwich and some salsa( jalapeno ) flavoured wheat thins.
Work is work glad to be home.
Lots of traffic accidents today during rush hour here.
Maters are totally done, lesson learned if growing tomatoes in containers water alone is not enough must fertilize as well however the front porch gets the morning sun and afternoon shade and they did better than in the backyard where they get sun baked and the critters(birds, squirrels, raccoons)get to them. Next year will put out more containes(large pots) and will design a staking system to tie up the vines as they grow and feed as well as water the plants. Again I will grow Ox heart and Cherokee purple tomatoes and at least 2 each of better boy and early girl tomatoes. My pepper plants never even bloomed this year but to my suprise the cucumber vines grew half a dozen nice cucumbers before the ol'e cucumber vines got the disease that kills off the vines need to dust them and cabbage if you want to harvest anything from them. Typing about tomatos has made me hungery a tomato slice sandwich sounds good(only have some store bought ones
left)
Well I worked hard and will turn in shortly as only had 5 hours of sleep between second shift Sunday and first shift this morning. Work is almost like a second home
