The 'maters are gettin' tall.



In just a matter of days....





We have had some nice mild weather, with temperatures around the upper 80's. I have had to water more than I like, but that is also to wash off the tiny red tomato bugs that invaded. With the Sevin dust and the washings...those bugs have been relatively harmless, though.

We have lift-off!


Greetings everyone! The garden is now growing and producing in full force. Nothing harvested yet, aside from a few beans and strawberries...but it's all growing rather impressively. 


    

No real problems to report. I did have to apply some Sevin Dust to the entire garden, as we have random bugs invading from all sides!! But a sprinkling or two of "the dust" and they subside within a day or two. 
I have also found that washing the leaves and bits (top and bottom) on the tomato plants keep the lil buggers away between 'dustings'. 

Okies...that's it for now...later gators!
