Pinging the list.
Hi Greeneyes,
Good afternoon to you! It’s sunny and about 85 degrees in Southwest Connecticut. It’s been dry and my Moonflower vine really needed some water this morning.
No buds have appeared on my Clematis Paniculata, but I haven’t given up hope. Yet.
Waitin’ for Erika. :-(
Blecch!
Mine was an absolute bust this year.
My tomatoes are hanging in there and keeping my BLT cravings under control. The Kentucky Wonder beans finally decided to take off. They're making beans as fast as I can pick em.
Got some fall garden planted. Kale, collards, rutabaga, radishes, beets, and some mixed lettuce. Hopefully I got it all planted in time to make a crop.
The spot next to the potting shed where I had the cold frame was collecting water when it rained, so I moved the cold frame and put some dirt in the low spot. I still need to till and seed it, but I want to let it settle a bit more first. I placed the cold frame near the power outlet in the yard so there won't be a need to run an extension cord to it for winter heat. I liked the look of it next to the potting shed so I'll probably move it back there after I'm satisfied there's enough dirt there to keep the water from pooling.
I'm one step closer to being able to get my commercial tomato operation going. Brought home the 4-bottom mounted plow that I traded for the 5-bottom semi-mount plow that I bought at an auction earlier in the summer. This one looks a bit crusty from sitting outside, but it is in excellent condition.
