Happy Memorial Day to everyone. Cold front passed through and temps have lowered 20 degrees so I may get some things planted before it rains. I have to help 2 new gardeners at the community garden this AM but the afternoon is mine. Time to plant my peppers.
GIP, we get hail every year, so to protect the tomatoes and peppers, I use a shade cloth I bought at Lowe's. Or you could check out a porous ground cover that might be more heavy duty. What I use lasts about 6+ years and is made by Easy Garderer.
Enjoy your day and stay safe. Remember your loved ones.
