Default Garden site #2 PIC's

Here is the new garden site at the other place it's a little behind the 1st one but it should do ok I hope.
I have peppers, squash, cucumbers and tomatoes at this one.

I am so tired of planting tomatoes.

Looks good. I'm jealous. Snow cover is gone but we're still frozen up the hill.

The other place. Is this where you go to hide from your wife? Like the fortress of solitude?

It looks good.

Looks great, not just the lovely tomato plants, but the trees with green leaves, blue sky...

I am sitting at the computer, and looking out the window I see leafless trees, snowbanks and a few spitting snow flurries.

Nice work. It's nice to have the irrigation water available in that field.

Thanks to all of you guys.

It has been a real chore and the area in the middle is as hard as a rock.
( I put the hot peppers there, I figured that if I gave them a hard life they would be HOT.)

Then some of the area is very good soil.

Time will tell.

If it stays as dry as it has been you may be OK without support at all. I would either do that or if you have time and funds and energy to do so try some trellising. Heck some t-post with 9 wire strung from 5-6' high horizantally with twine dropped down from the wire to provide support would ber economical but labor and time intensive.. and you and I know what can happen in 2 weeks away. Ha! Get some hay or straw and spread it and hope for the best!

Worth, you can use the Carolyn method and let them sprawl. What you need to do now is build some kind of roadside stand to sell your maters or line up some restaraunts to sell them to. Anyway you look at it your going to have tomatoes comming out of your you know what. Ami

P.S. You better load up some shotgun shells with rock salt for them tomato poachers.You got a gun rack in that truck?
