Gardening Update

The tomatoes haven't grown any new fruit. I just read online that shaking the plants may help in polinization. Or they may have too much nitrogen or a fungus. The leaves and stalks are growing nicely though.

My compost has flies. I just read online that you're supposed to add "brown" stuff as well as "green" stuff. But that oak leaves are very leathery and need to be shredded. I need a shredder to break them and my coffee filters down.

The jalopenos have 4 cute little dark green peppers growing out of their flowers. The bell peppers look like they are about to make fruit too.

The eggplant has a new fruit bud that is covered with a furry light-greenness that reminds me of lamb's ear.

And the okra is getting taller.

I like gardening.
