i have a few others around the place. they are doing ok, but not gangbusters.
the spot i have picked for them goes from pretty sunny to a kinda short day, but will see. think i need to put the potted plants out there while i wait to get around to it and see what they do.

but yeah, i am figuring this is where i do all the greens and stuff like that, esp those that tend to bolt on me.

have a couple containers w cukes and squash that i put in the sunniest spots. they are doing ok, but not as well as the ones in high sun. just the size of the leaves is telling me what i didnt want to know.

kinda sucks that the tree that gives the most shade is on my neighbors lot line, but almost entirely in my yard. he has a couple big maples that made it reach into my yard. it is def gonna take down the fence one day. his fence, tho. it has some dead wood that i think i am gonna try to get taken down, and maybe take off a couple of the lower limbs whether he likes it or not.
he already is not real fond of me, which is another whole long story.
but i might as well go ahead and write another chapter.
