THIS IS AN IMPORTANT GARDEN UPDTATE

We almost went to the nursery to get some plants, soil and gardening implements! Thank heaven some unexpected company showed up and kept us from having to go! Whew! Close call!

We have a HARVEST! We have a HARVEST! WOOTS! WOOTS!

Well, actually it was 1 (one) strawberry. But still.... The flash tape must have worked because it was bright red and had no peck marks on it! I had thought to take a picture of it but it “got eaten” so you will just have to imagine a smallish, bright red strawberry.

Tater after being knocked over

We also had some high winds and one of the tater plants got pushed over. The others were fine. By the time I got out the next day, the plant had already switched it's growth orientation to the new position. I was amazed that the plant could shift 8 inches of its top most growth to be 90 degrees from the base which is laying against the side of the pot.

Upcoming concern: We are having very hot weather: 106 degrees (41.1 Celsius) yesterday and today. I will be watching how the plants do in this heat. Gee... I sound like a farmer!
