Put a smile on my face

Post by Steve51 » Sat May 14, 2022 9:46 pm

We had thunderstorms move through our area this evening, then briefly the sun popped out and sure enough - a rainbow - and briefly, a double rainbow.

Beautiful place
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

What are the jugs covering, tomatoes?

Looks like you have some good soil. My friend is trying to establish a garden on my property but the soil is needing lots of amending. Lots of clay, been adding old straw and hay for a couple years now and have a big pile composting that may be ready next year.

These jugs are covering my pepper plants. I usually cover tomatoes & peppers if we have a frost warning but I had to cover my peppers because the rabbits were eating them. They nibble a few branches of the plant, then eat the main stem a day or two later. When they get a little bigger they don't bother them anymore.
