Gaining Height

It's amazing what a bit of nice weather and some water will do to a garden plot! Watering had been a bit of a challenge over the weekend. I was out of town, but Kelly was going to help me out. Unfortunately the water isn't on permanently due to the leak below and such AND because the barrels that are supposed t be filled daily hadn't been. Well... that brings us to the beginning of the week when it was HOT. I repeat HOT.

I'm glad Kelly was able to get some water to my plants on Monday night and then I was able to do a quick drink on Tuesday. Wednesday was the real scorcher. Kelly gave many plots at Davis Park a long drink during the day. I went back in the evening to check out the scene and I did not need to add anymore water to the plots. The temperatures have dropped a bit today which makes it more manageable for all of us, plants included!

I just did a quick update from the pictures on Friday so that you could compare them with the pictures in this post. This post has pictures that I took last night while at plot#10. Clint and I stopped on our way back from a delicious dinner at Mexico.

I was amazed at how much the tomatillos, spinach, swiss chard, and squash has grown in less than a week. The tomatoes are starting to take off as well.
