…and putting the tomatoes closer together… 2 in each of the pails in the first photo and one in each corner of the raised bed with the ….ta da …. laundry rack on it.. how creative is that! I just ran out of tomato stakes!
.....just a journal of mostly photos of my gardening adventures... minus the backlog of over 1000 photos not yet uploaded! Also, I find myself collecting some recipes and just good ideas so this is the perfect place to put them. More pictures are on Pinterest at pinterest.com/laurelWisconsin.

Take one bucket…
Drill holes in the bottom, add some rocks, put screen over top of rocks, add straw and soil, plant tomato, add more straw, put tomato cage in bucket, do 5 more times. I just didn’t expect all those seeds to germinate…
I think there is room for carrots!
I want a burn pit… no..
It pays to read the label…
I need dirt… choices.. go and dig it up at neighbors or buy it.. today it was “buy it” when I was at Big Lots… huge bag $8. Get it home, fill some of the beds and then notice it says garden soil… hhmmm not potting soil but garden soil. who knew?? …not to be used in containers… hhmm…. to the internet… too compacted… hhmmm… I have straw… so I take the van, collect soil, straw, Brita and Jake and proceed to mix the straw and soil to use for containers!! We’ll see….
