July 30-AW - tomato cages: we're just going with the old standbys. df and rj are going to borrow John's truck to go to Farm n' Fleet and other places to gather them up in the next week or so.
- staking the peas: hungrygirl and sc volunteered to stake the peas some time in the next week. there are directions on how to stake the peas using a kind of wigwam design in the organic gardening book or we can stake them like last year.
- hay(hey)/straw and plants: tfoster volunteered to pick up some straw, along with two tiger-striped tomato plants. since i have no task yet, i'm happy to volunteer to go and throw some hay around.
- hungrygirl has 4 tomato plants at home that can go in the front plot with the 4 peppers in it.
We also have some other issues that we'll need to figure out in the coming weeks:
- beans and eggplant, basil & soybeans: how long do we wait before we decide to pack it in with these? I think I said I'll try to look for baby eggplant pictures on the web so we can distinguish. In the meantime, i'm happy to take on the weeding responsiblities for that plot.
- if we do have a little more room, what do we want to plant? SC said he'll research radishes, I'm going to see if arugula is a possibility and we all seemed excited about cantaloupe.
- harvesting: we had questions about onions, shallots, broccoli, and spinach.
Is there anything else? Vegetables soon! yay!
