Managed to plant the whole first row on tier 2. Had some cool and rainy phases throughout.

Plant , cover, soak, transplant juice repeat.

Got a mix of peppers tomatoes and cucumbers. Thinking of the future we want fresh veggies everyweek. Diversifying the varieties is key for perpetual harvesting

Hopefully tommorrow I can shore up the greenhouse to get a higher peak and make a nice path and row in the process

i much prefer planting small. Let nature do rest.
pros and cons to growing them bigger which I don't have the time for this year

When the fruit is young (usually during summer) its skin is thin and the flesh is soft, just like a zucchini or typical “summer squash”. This applies to all pumpkins also known as “winter squash”. When autumn comes the skin on the squash is usually thick and hard (rind) and the flesh is hard like a sweet potato. Same fruit different applications

I'd assume the flavor changes too?

I'd assume the flavor changes too?

They get sweeter as the ripen into winter squash. Also they store very well and sweeten the following 2 months after harvest

Lots still going on. I'm primed now to maybe completely finish the whole garden minus the greenhouse row

Trying to use up all the cardboard now too. So superior to landscape fabrics and poly

The hydroponic starters are booming after transitioning to the outdoors

Macho mapacho going strong. All the transplants have taken well too

The oregano that came with the garden could probably at this point be called a Canadian landrace. This variety is super sweet

P.s. my mom stays here alot and uses camoflouge on the plants she buys and plants here. Black tail deer will munch most anything in sight. So pretty smart move

Thru down some more Dill, radish started in an egg carton, parsley, 3 types of basil, a wall of scallions between the mupacho and the herbs, gotta row and a bit of skinny peppers too

Macho mupacho patch. They are really liking the easy drain medium

Banged out another big bed today. The loud skunk bed

Had to get it done. The babies are ready for a grounded home.

Still have to figure out a black out system for them

Last year's wood ash and hoping the oregano, lemon balm and a few other herbs we inherited take over the sandy ditches, end of the rows and walk ways. There roots will really help the terraces with erosion

There will be 3 beds on the first row too. Which means I need to shore up and secure the greenhouse better asap
