My garden has washed away. Three times so far this week. I can’t get out there to finish mulching it because I’ve got to fix all the washing away. And then it washes away again.

HOPEFULLY, this weekend, I’ll be able to catch up. Good thing we’ve got a long growing season, my peanuts washed away and there’s no telling where they’ll be sprouting. I’ve got to replant those this evening.

Looking like a cool summer here. We haven’t even hit 60 degrees today.

I had a bed that did that. We dug a trench around the bed and filled it with rock. Added some vermiculite, and peat to the soil, and put some of that cheap edging around it.

It helped with stopping the run off. Don’t know if it would help or be practical for your situation.

It’s so discouraging to have to keep replanting stuff and then shortly thereafter have it destroyed.

Welcome to the party. My corn is all growing at the bottom corner.

The weeds are so bad that it’s beyond useless. Getting some squash and volunteer beans.
