It sure does appear that plot#10 is out of control. I've decided that I can't really complain though. I could be the first time "community gardener" with a dead looking plot and be ready to give up on it already. It's just the opposite! The garden is growing like crazy.
Today we spent time at the garden moving more things out of plot#10 and up to the hillside bed. Since no one has taken action on the hillside beds we're going to use the last one. We moved some of the sunflowers to the hillside bed along with one more squash plant and two cucumber plants. We're hoping that they survive the move- gave them plenty of water before we left tonight and will be back tomorrow to make sure that they aren't too thirsty!
Today was Pride Fest 2010 in Providence. Didn't make it down there but we did manage to get our rainbow spirals in plot#10 to support the tomatillos. (Who knew that those suckers grow up to 6 feet tall!) The spirals are going to be good for the tomatillos and the big bonus is that they don't take up a lot of space!
Holy Squash! Wow! We've got real squash. :-)
Some of our tomato plants are going to be growing with red tomato ladders while a few others have the regular silver cages. I suppose you can call it an experiment of sorts. Supposedly the red tomato ladders are supposed to help the tomatoes be RED! These are also space savers!
Just one more day of school-- which means then there will be more posts and more photos from plot#10. Stay tuned!
The garden looks AMAZING! Go you and your green thumb! Can't wait to hear how the veggies taste all summer and fall :)
