In this bed, for starters we have San marzano, brandy wine and love gourmanson sunrise tomatoes, and some pollinator flowers.

For seeds we have sage, iceberg lettuce and Lebanese cucumbers, scatter planted we have red radishes and rainbow carrots.

Getting time to start thinning here soon.

Do you guys cut or pull when thinning?

Hope you survive the extended water restrictions!

I’ve got some spare totes around the house and I’ll get some more from HD to collect the rain water the next few days. I’ll just let the barrel overflow fill them up. It’ll be ghetto, but at that point those things are $12 for 100l or it’s over $150 for any other option of 200l.

Here’s hoping it’s enough! I think I can add some more straw here soon though, that should help keep it moister.

But 3-5 more weeks is rough, most people aren’t gonna follow them that long, so the more rain I can keep, the better I’ll feel when I need a tiny bit.
