    One year I had tomato plants in the ground early. When it snowed or frosted I took some empty two liter soda bottles, filled them with water and made a circle with them around each tomato plant. Cover with a piece of plastic paint drop cloth or similar material. Tomatoes pulled through like champs.

    Been working on cultivating my soil for my garden tilled the ground last fall and added 2 large piles of manure in it then. Earlier in the spring I broadcast spread a cover crop to add more nutrients to the soil. Today I tilled it. Hopefully next year we will get the garden going it is 48' x 24' going to put up a 6' fence to keep critters out and also going to build a 16' L x 12' W greenhouse in the southwest corner.

    Any ideas what these are? They are killing my
    squash.



    Found it. They are called squash bugs (yeah, original name) and they are bad news. Ugh. I'm on a mission to kill them all.

    Neem Oil pretty much kills most pests and is safe for a lot of things. I make a poor man's neem oil with water and a little bit of Canola Oil in a spray bottle. Shake like heck and spray all over .
