I had to go back and look to see what I did with the three tubs.
First tub all MG natures care raised bed soil with perlite.
No Plant tone because I ran out.
Next tub all MG Natures care Raised bed soil and 8 big hand fulls of plant tone mixed in plus perlite.
Last tub on the left is 4 cubic feet of Kellog's raised bed soil and 1.5 cubic feet of MG natures care raised bed soil and perlite with 8 big hand fulls of plant tone.

These tubs will be 1 2 and 3 in relation to when I planted them.
Tub one being the first one and at the top of the hill with the ghost peppers okra and Boston pickling cucumbers in it.
Tub two watermelon and national picking cucumbers.
Tub three honey dew and cantaloupe with two cow horn okra and some basil.

I know when you see the pictures it will look ridiculous as to the amount of plants in each tub.
I have my reasons.
1 I didn't think they would make it this far.
2 I figure a deer will eat them.
3 I want to see just how much a person can grow in 30 and 40 gallon tubs with no drain holes just the one sight /drain tube and get away with it.
4 this is my second year using this type of soil from bags and it seems to work wonderfully in containers.
5 The vines will either go up or on the ground in all directions making room for everything.
6 I like to experiment.

I have had this happen before I can see it as a blue attachment and can see the pictuer if I click on it.
I am going back and redoing it.
I cant even edit the darn things.

I heard about this on the news as it was going on.
It was so stupid.
Many migrant workers cant afford to use a clothes dryer and were hanging up their laundry was part of it.
I guess none of these jerks ever lived in the Bronx.

Along those lines, get it, where do you purchase the cable stuff like Gerardo uses for grape line. My posts are in and Home Depot doesn't carry it.

We have had stuff forced on us by darn near gun point and they call it tolerance.
But the same people want to stop Po' folks from drying their clothes on a line were people can see them.
I honestly think I would take poison before I moved to that state.
