About 6’x40’ across a whole row gets dedicated, the cherry tomatoes I wan to use to replace the fence / chicken wire, so I’m gunna do similar to a Florida weave / grapevine system with some short posts and some twine and see how it goes I think maybe mix beans in between the tomatoesIm trying my hand at compost this year : ) for application next year.
200-300!? Holy cow! Whats the area of that once they’re planted? I like the idea of a cherry tomato row
Yeah but he wears a lab coatLegit, I have come back to this a couple times today. It’s just clean af.
The kind of thing that def is honed to a razors edge. Proper.
Nah just a mud coatYeah but he wears a lab coat
Oh I hear ya I’m fucking DEAD but it’s my addiction, I love growing shit and every year I must do more it’s like my ol’ lady says “Mike always has to fuckin go big or go home”I am WAY too old to dig up garden beds, by hand or any other way. I've dug mine up 2' deep a couple times through the past decade and it's 10 x 40' I'm all done with that nonsense
Thats some serious gardening : ) GREAT JOB on the soil!!! I know it takes time and knowledge to be able to do that!About 6’x40’ across a whole row gets dedicated, the cherry tomatoes I wan to use to replace the fence / chicken wire, so I’m gunna do similar to a Florida weave / grapevine system with some short posts and some twine and see how it goes I think maybe mix beans in between the tomatoes
Soil is super nice 10” down by hand with just a quick till
Even your joints are perfect!Morning folks!
Watered with some flower fuel gunna mix that in 3 day watering roatation plan will be one per watering OG tea next watering FF Cal-Mag / next watering flower fuel / repeat
We’ll see how that goes, the Frostette clones exploded with the flower fuel so hopefully mixing in the Tea to the mix improves even more
Right back at it! Gotta get the plastic down, expansion is done got the compost layer in just before dark and stripped all the weeds along the fence, gotta do the back edge, just got back had to pick up food for dinner and some caulk tubes of gorilla glue adhesive to seal the edges together on the rolls.Thats some serious gardening : ) GREAT JOB on the soil!!!

Yep 10 watermelon sprouted in the greenhouseDouble threat!!I Iike ah the spicey meatballs ! Is your wife going to get her watermelons? : )
We’ve figured out that we’re totally covered with every variety of tomato that we could really want within the indeterminates. Single or double stem leaders on a string is sooo much easier “for us.” Gotta pinch all the suckers but I rather enjoy that task. Only weaving I do anymore is with some tall lanky hot peppers.About 6’x40’ across a whole row gets dedicated, the cherry tomatoes I wan to use to replace the fence / chicken wire, so I’m gunna do similar to a Florida weave / grapevine system with some short posts and some twine and see how it goes I think maybe mix beans in between the tomatoes

Great looking soil Mike, so envious. NC red clay just doesn't have the same feel. Growing up in Western Mass we had that black soil.Yep 10 watermelon sprouted in the greenhouse
Still goin at it, time for some meatballs and beer then back to it, gunna make some plywood/osb plates and spike them down with 24” concrete pins to make sure it dosent fly away lol

Tons of sandy loom here I live in winery and fruit country, fuckin nuts, I’ll grab some tree pics of some 3 year old trees in awhile,Great looking soil Mike, so envious. NC red clay just doesn't have the same feel. Growing up in Western Mass we had that black soil.
I've been working the same plot here for 30 years and a mountain of compost later I have kinda brown soil!
That’s pretty much the pan, may even test a few techniques at once, long open edge will have T-posts and I plan to run 10x cherry tomatoes grapevine style it’s first year soil under the plastic there so it’s a test but we’ll get it workin, this is to really smoke any weed seeds in the soil this year and really get those worms up next Thai is a fun project garden wife just lets me run with it year ti year but at the end of the day it’s an organic permaculture based garden, I play around but never sway from organicWe’ve figured out that we’re totally covered with every variety of tomato that we could really want within the indeterminates.
