sorry you all had to wait this long for an update. raised-bed gardens seemed to be a good start in my small space. but they are sensitive to it. there has also been a fair bit of red week beginning to show up, which is never a good sign at this time of year. the weather was nice and cool and dry and just perfect for walking around an amusement park. why do others always go through the back of the cooler, leaving a bunch of lines all over the place for people to see?
