Gardens getting a bit out of control with weeds and certain plants crowding others out so cleaned them up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Took a few hours plus but it needed to be done even though it reached 104 degrees Fahrenheit today. Started about 9:30 in the morning and finished about 1:30 in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dipped the pool for a while right afterwards before heading to the stores and running errands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now the items I want to get nutrients and grow will not have as much competition plus will not be overshadowed by the overgrowth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also planted some corn I started from seed and replanted a pole bean plant I accidentally dug up from the east vegetable garden. The bean plant came from the 3 sisters plants bundle of beans, squash and corn from east garden. Then moved it to the west vegetable garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
