I did not endeavor to do much this year with vegetable gardening. I have 8 cucumber plants and 4 tomato plants. I did plant a bunch of flowers and the begonias are doing really well under the shady tree. The other flowers I tried under there just didn’t grow – so now I know to use begonias.
The other gardening problem is the groundhog. While we were away at camp the groundhog dug a hole under the gate. The rest of the way around the garden the fence goes down into the dirt so it found the weakest point.
My son and I piled the hole full of rocks and it stayed for a couple days. Then when we were gone all day visiting the zoo the groundhog dug all the rocks out and ate the cucumber leaves. Stinkin’ groundhog! I piled the hole full again and resorted to dog poop. I shoveled a pile and put it by the hole. My husband has plans to put wire down, but he’s busy so I’m hoping this works for now.
Here’s a video I did last Friday before the bigger hole was dug:
