Attack of the weeds

The weed invasion is more or less under control in the vegetable garden. For now. I still have more to do, but the majority of the little weedlings have been plowed under. Oh, they'll be back, but with a stretch of dry days ahead, it will take some time.

You can see what's left of the green mat of weeds along the back and on the right side of the plot. There's more work to be done!

The tomato plants are getting tall enough now to attach to the legs of the tripods, or tee-pees if you prefer. I've also started pinching suckers from the central stems. And I've sprayed a few times to prevent the mildew fungus from attacking. Phew! The plants should enjoy the coming heat wave, as long as I keep them watered.
