Put the new gas tank on my splitter and cleaned the carburetor as best I could but it won't run. It's got spark but the spark plug gets soaked in a couple of pulls of the start rope. Came in and checked ebay and I now have a new carb on the way for $16.
So I moved on to the next project, a more fun project. I went out this morning and got those fittings to be able to install my new inverted micro-sprinklers. Everything worked out well with that so I'd call it a half way decent day.
They're like a nice gentls rain with small drops and I can see how they'd do a 4 foot wide table perfectly. It's amazing how they don't sling around while hanging from 2 foot of flexible 1/4" drip hose. Senninger is good stuff. I'll probably add some weights to them so they don't sling around in high wind. I wouldn't be running them then but don't want them to wrap up around the trellis board. I think a 1/2" nut slid over the tubing and sitting on the sprinkler would do the trick.
I left the middle one out for this 9 foot bed and I think it will be fine. On the bed that's closer to 12 foot long, I'll do three.
I'll do that here shortly so I can moisten that bed and get the Bok Choy and Tatsoi planted today or tomorrow.
Tomorrow is mostly going to be raking and burning. There's actually a driveway on the other side of the garden in the video above. Need to hunt for one of the rakes. I may have leaned it against something and the goats knocked it over and then the leaves came down and covered it up. Need to lightly rake the lettuce bed too. It's densely planted so I'm not worried about losing a few.
