Good idea about letting the fertilizers sit to see if it attracts any digging!

I think my new strategy will be to use the liquid bone meal, once I see blossoms on tomatoes and peppers, cukes and zukes. I’ll also check the ingredients (again!) on my other liquid fertilizers to see if they incorporate calcium into the mix.

I always refer back to the box; it’s like when you’re baking a cake mix, which you’ve done 10,000 times already, and have to keep digging the box out of the trash to re-read the instructions, LOL!

Well, at least *I* still do that! ;)

DANG!!!

I just found a tick on one of my asparagus plants!

I knew I had picked them up in the garden in prior years. I did see some on onions in the past. Course, they go for a swim in soapy water, too.
