Yesterday I pruned the tomato plants in house one. I stuffed them into this quart bottle. They should begin to root by the end of the month,
Yesterday, I made this salad with most everything coming from out gardens. I ate half of it yesterday and the rest of it for lunch today.
Carol wanted her lemon trees brought out. It has been hard to keep them standing. I tried several different ways. One year I tied them to conduit stakes. That worked most of the time, but the wind blew them over. I have put them in a pot in a pot. I drove spikes through the bottom of the pot. The wind still blew them over. To day I dug holes and buried the pots. They should not blow over now. I will dig them up and bring the back to the greenhouse where they will spend the winter.
I took these vine plants outside yesterday afternoon to harden off or get accustom to the outdoor climate. This afternoon they were pretty wilted. I rook them back to house two and tonight they looking good.
I put the rooted cuttings in the four inch square pots and watered them well. They should be ready to plant in house six in a couple of weeks.
I called Shelley's about my lawnmower. I think that I will have a new engine put in. I gave Steve the serial and model number. He called later this evening. It will cost nearly $3,000 for the engine, taxes, and shipping. The above picture shows the location of the numbers.
I planted six more tomato Tasmanian Chocolate tomato. Three are shown above.
Another look at the lemon tree.
