Monday Update on Weekend Activities

No pictures today but lots of garden activity over the weekend. Hattie and I went to WalMart and picked up some Garden Soil, which has peat moss and steer manure in it. We're hoping that it will work, and it looks like it will.

On Friday I went up to 40th and Indian School in Phoenix to find some "coarse" vermiculite. There's "fine" everywhere, but you have to hunt a little for the coarse stuff. Everyone who has done this before says it works best, and after spending all this money and time, we want the best.

Hattie's boxes are filled and ready to plant after some wetting. She put them on the east side of the house behind where they (and the rest of you) have lived. There used to be a little green lawn there, but they've been using it for a parking lot, so it is just dirt now with a little grass around the edges.

Near where the boxes are is a spigot for water that will do just nicely.

Jenny Stinocher across the street has her's all ready to plant for FHE tonight. Hattie may do so, also.

I still have to work on that today when I get home.

That's an update from Grandpa.
