 Our planters are filling with food. Don't mind how the greens look pixel-y, that's actually because of the bird netting stretching over to protect our veggies from birds, deer, and squirrels. So far, it's working well. We've had salads from our lettuce, herbs for various meals, and lots of caprese sandwiches made using our lemon basil. While the netting has kept out the varmints, it couldn't protect the greens from a random lightening bolt that singed a power pole, part of an oak, and all of the vegetables in this planter, as well as my Sungold tomato plant in the other planter. Things seem to be recovering nicely, and I need to do some more harvesting tonight, so that my lettuce doesn't bolt. Mmmm... salad for dinner! |
