We have not had rain for so long so we broke down and purchased drip irrigation for the whole place, complete with timers and every gadget, got up Sunday to install and guess what? It was RAINING . . go figure (sure way to make it rain . . 1. Wash the car, 2. Water the yard)So, after the rain, we spent the rest of the day running drip lines to every garden box, every flower bed and every potted patio plant . . . WHEW! my back is achin! . . but boy am I glad that's done. We have all the timer boxes to water 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night. This should save a TON of water and make for much happier plants (cuz Grace is famous for shamlessly torturing plants) . .
But check out the cherry tomatoes and bell peppers! Yumm . . we can't wait . . we try to will them into ripening every day by staring at them . . . soon, soon
