Time for Tomatoes!




This year, I have a specially prepared bed for my tomato plants and basil. The two plants have a symbiotic relationship, giving each other nutrients the other lacks--it's a perfect marriage of plants in the garden.


I chose Early Girl and cherry tomatoes this year, and they will be planted in front of the solar woodshed, which shelters them and reflects heat and light back onto the plants. I have enriched the soil bed with my own compost made in my Compost Wizard, and the soil looks wonderful. I'm hoping for a bumper crop of tomatoes this year, after a poor showing last year. Stay tuned!
