Making Light For Non-Secret Garden

| 0 comments

I had to clear tree branches from above my garden coming in from a yard behind me because the branches were throwing my produce in shadows too much of the day. Hopefully I did it in time to restore some of the luster to my vegetables.
My strawberries never had a problem since they were on the edge unaffected by the branches. The okra looks good, tomatoes started strong but didn’t reach full size I like and without the sun never reached that full red ripe stage now they will along with my peppers, squash, pumpkins, cucumbers etc.
Now I will plant some late season vegetables as well plus start a treatment of plant food. I also reset the water timer to water longer twice a day because of the hot Sacramento summers. And soaked the ground to saturate the garden to fully hold the water and now the automatic timer will keep the ground moist and not dry and cracked.
That was my Saturday plus some minor work on the audio/computer room until I realized I was tired.
