GARDEN 2000

We had a very mild winter here in Mississippi. I could have set out tomatoes the first of March but you never know. This year I set out 23 "Better Boys" and  three "Super Fantastics" on April 19. I also planted or set out broccoli, peppers, zucchini, squash and peas.
    Everything is the same as last year except I added another field for the peppers. I now have 3 pumps and 5 barells on my system. I added another raised bed and filled it with pine bark from some of my old bags. The
bags will only last for2 to 3 years before the old sun takes it's toll on the plastic.
Below are some random shots just after everything was set out until May 23.

Squash. Zucchini and Green Beans
 
 

This is a small system that can handle about 10
tomatoe plants. I have thought about selling
a system like this.
