The weeds are winning

This will serve as the "before" shot. The next few days are predicted to be dry and warm, and we have our work cut out for us. We need to try to get the vegetable garden under control after weeks of rainy weather. The tomatoes, zukes, beans, chard, and eggplant are all looking good, but the weeds are looking better.

It's not easy to see them, but there are vegetables in there.

I'll start by running our small electric rototiller between the rows. Then we'll use a hoe and another weeding tool to do some of the more delicate work. Hopefully, I'll have a better looking "after" shot.

  2. And it all started off so well with the drip irrigation that would encourage less weeds! Mother Nature was watching and laughing.
