Remember I started a garden down in Desert Hot Springs? It was growing in plastic window box containers. Well the traveling garden's wandering days are over. Here is an update.

Here's the zucchini. We should be harvesting some in a couple days. We are still putting this in the garage at night. And the tomatoes are in the little greenhouse

Nice tomatoes. Maybe you will get a new avitar tomato

No good deed goes unpunished.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.

I hope so! I loved it when you discovered the glasses would fit on the tomatoes nose!

great looking garden. I have gotten 2 tomato's so far, I built a cage around mine but I like your way. I am setting aside a very large area and plan on growing a lot of produce. Probably next year but I have irrigation in. Finished today with the lions share. How do you pollenate the tomato's? Few bee's so far, and I guess I will have to open them up during the day to let the hummingbirds in. Then close them up when the tomato's start.
My two seemed to develope overnight. Do they grow real fast? Both were where the plants grew through the cage. And the birds got to one before I could

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.


Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.

I open the doors during the day so there is a breeze that comes in...but I also reach in there to water, so maybe I have been doing some of that myself

BGS, All you have to do to polinate the tomatoes is give each plant a little shake. I have grown tomatoes in and Aero Garden in the house where there are no bees.
