Everything looks so lush and healthy! I've been completely overwhelmed with cucumbers this year. I picked 26 slicing cucumbers Friday night. Fortunately some folks in my community took some. How is the Florida Weave going with the tomatoes? At least I think that's what it's called.
ReplyDeleteThe Florida weave works very well. Next year I would buy taller T-posts and put an additional T-post in the center instead of garden stakes. The posts we had are 6 foot and I thing 8 footers would work better.
DeleteI'm glad it's working well for you. I'm trying a hybrid this year with my tomatoes--I've weaved a t post into a tomato cage and pounded it into the ground to keep the cage from falling over when the plant gets too big. So far so good.
DeleteWhere is that rabbit in relation to your gardens???
ReplyDeleteAbout eight feet from the Dahlias. They don't care much about the garden. They have all of the clover they can eat. Some things have to be protected spring and fall, but there isn't much that interests them in the summer.
