Garden Notes

One harvest of 3 so far.  This week.

Notes for next year:

  • Plant only about 4 tomato plants, not 6.

  • Same for the jalapeños.

  • MORE green peppers. Or maybe they were just shaded by the tomatoes?

  • Plant the tall things in the back. Which is to say, the tomatoes.

  • Tomato cages have very little resistance to bending from being overloaded. Stake them.

  • The Garden-Fresh Vegetable Cookbook has a trillion good ways to use all the results. (By the time I re-read this next year, I should know if they are actually yummy.)

  • I will also know if making my own crushed tomatoes worked.

  • Add snap peas, basil, cilantro and possibly watermelons.
