After months of hard work, our aggressively growing tomato plants are sprouting some actual tomatoes. The zucchini and eggplants (once infested with beetles and other such critters) have quadrupled in size during the last week, due in large part to copious amounts of rain in the last 4 days. The carrots are showing some signs of sprouting, but are generally MIA. Adrian and I successfully installed fully operational drip irrigation in one half of the garden–the lettuce rows and melon patch–which will, when covering the entire garden, save about an hour of daily watering work. Pictres to come soon…..I promise
