On Tuesday April 23, 2013, we got a lot done again:
Bob, Whit & Jan, Latanya and her daughter, Sue, Val, Stephanie, Leah, Val, and Dave:
1. Did a lot of weeding.
2. Prepared the ground and planted corn in south half of plot 1.
3. Set up several tomato cages.
4. Planted 4 tomato plants.
5. Mulched the middles of most of the garden.
6. Set out marigold and basil companion plants.
7. Inspected the garlic and believe it is too early yet to harvest.
We have been slowed down a lot by the rain and cooler than usual temps, which are forecast again for this coming weekend.
We will see what planting we can get done Tuesday, and if this is the last unsuitable weekend, we will finish next week. Also I will make up an organic bug spray for the lettuce cabbages, and taters.
Ain't God good!
