July 26, 2009 Finally have lots and lots of peppers/veggies. I’ve been giving some away now and making batches of salsa when I have multiple red tomatoes. My tomato plants in my square bed are getting really big and not sure what to do about them as they are over 6 feet and could topple over. Let me know if you have any suggestions for that.
June 29, 2009 I have an Ichiban Eggplant to harvest and some other veggies! Got rid of 1 zucchini plant and 1 yellow squash plant. They were taking up too much space in the square bed. I planted 2 new zukes and yellow squash in buckets and once they are big enough I’ll tear out the other zuke/squash in the square bed. Finally a few more red tomatoes, but no huge waves of them yet to harvest. I should have a bunch soon though.
I bought a Topsy Turvy upside down tomato planter and I want to compare how good it is versus an upside down tomato planter you can build on your own at home. Is it really worth the money to buy one or just as good to build your own?
