I’m trying out those laundry-basket strawberry planters you see all over YouTube, plus putting down landscape cloth to see if my Brilliant Idea for ground cherry harvest will work. (Ground cherries fall off when they’re ripe. I am thinking if I plant them on a steep slope with slick mulch, they will slide right down to where they’re easy to gather, but I have yet to be able to test this. :) And next Saturday (ish) the tomato seedlings get transplanted, which is always a cause for rejoicing at my house.
Please keep us posted on how the experiment works. I love to try out stuff like that too. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
A little sad here in Virginia that our 2-yo peach tree gave us a profusion of nice pink blossoms 3 weeks ago, but got nipped by a freeze overnight and lost all those infant fruit. She gave us five nice peaches last July. But she’s fighting back with a couple dozen more blossoms coming now. She seems to know her previous planned 2017 family was not to be, so she’s trying again. Go! Peach.

The laundry basket strawberry planter is great, thanks for telling us.
