When I posted last week I was in the process of doing some heavy weeding. After a few several weeks of doing a bare minimum of stuff because of a crazy work schedule and a trip to Iowa, I came back to a garden that looked like this:
Its taken me a couple of weeks to get everything cleaned up. I pulled the bulk of the weeds last night (with plans to finish up the rest tonight) and ended up with another pile similar to the one below:
The Garden looks barren right now except for the miscellaneous pepper plants and two eggplants that remain. While I was hoping that I’d have everything done and would be doing some planting yesterday, rain put a kibosh on the plans I had. But, it’s all good.
Based on the information I got from Urban Harvest here in Houston, I’m going to switch to a more sustainable format that allows for crop rotation and year around planting (one of the big advantages of living in Zone 9!!). I’m also going to expand the garden a bit as well. I’m excited for the upcoming changes.
