The little buggers have only been in for a few weeks, and one has a fruit already! Enthusiastic little tykes, I'll say that for them. We dynamic - ed them a few days ago and it looks like all systems go for this years crops. We may have so much that storage becomes an issue.
Sugar cane mulch:
What can I say? It's fantastic! Watering has been cut down this year to 2 10-minute lots a day, morning and night. The plants are growing beyond all previous records and every single store-bought seedling survived. We're definately getting this stuff for the rest of the yard.
On another note, we planted out the last of our home-grown tomato and capsi seedlings, and they have been a dismal failure. A single survivor out of some 50 seeds, a failure in anyones language. Nothing was different, but every single plant failed to live or thrive. We'll try again next year and see what happens.
The chicken wire has been purchased at last, so it looks like full steam ahead for the chooks as well. That's going to be a "fun" day putting all that together.
Oh well, some pain and annoyance must be had I suppose. Can't all be cocktails and watching stuff grow.
