Garden Notes

I don’t know what’s up with my tomatoes this year.    My mother was just telling me how hers were pretty slow this year.   Meanwhile, I’ve had to add a second tier to the cages to contain mine, and I pulled out the Swiss chard from between them because it was getting too shaded out (bearing in mind this is a colder weather plant getting too much shade in the heat of summer.   !?)

This is the first year I bought seedlings from the farmer’s market.    Guess I’m going to have to do that again.
