“Since I have about 150-200 plants I am still getting adequate production however for our small household.”
Good Lord! I grew 36 plants LAST season and nearly killed myself, LOL!
So, SO GOOD to hear from you! You were missed, FRiend. So glad you’re settled in, now.
Happy Wife (and dog!), Happy Life! :)
The point of so many plants was testing for which varieties would perform the best in my soil and this crazy heat (length of heat wave not the actual temps.)
I am in the county so no water restrictions but I hand water with a hose and wand daily. Each tomato plant gets a 8 second long dose (there is a flat spot next to every plant that acts like a little lake bed) which fills up the spot. Takes just a few minutes for it all to soak in.
I have big plans for landscaping....not much grass but trees and shrubs (fruit and nut trees and roses etc..
It won’t shock you to find out I introduced myself to the sweet lady who water’s all the plants up and down main street.
She and her hubby already have the invite to our housewarming party. We give eachother hugs when we see eachother because we are those sort of happy people who are “huggers” and we both love gardening.
Work is going well...I am now attached to the detectives division and I’m the CSI unit.
More like CSI light.....but I can collect evidence, lift prints, and drive stuff to the DPS crime lab when I need someone else’s skill level to handle the job.
