A few from my walk about the garden and driveway today - Page 2

Ken, the in ground garden gets full sun from about 9 AM until 3 or 4 PM. Roasts pretty bad in the afternoon - always amazed how the beets and cukes can look so awful in the full, hot sun - then come back beautifully in the evening!

swamper, I spend an hour each day watering by hand. If you had my type of soil (heavy clay, diseased, less sun than optimal), you would move to containers as well!
