I was able to get some free bamboo (8-10 ft long) from a coworker and now I have 3 bamboo tepees in the garden to help with keeping the tomatoes under control that are not close to the trellises. They are currently the highest thing in the garden and hopefully after lashing 3 pieces of bamboo together and tying them off to the main trellis will help keep htem from going everywhere for a little while longer.
On another note, it looks like things are going to start getting interesting. Hot weather for the next week with no sight of rain. (Hot is actually warm for Texas, low 90's for the highs.)
We will see how the garden does. The rain barrels are full but they will be empty in a week with all the water needed. Plus I found what I believe was a baby cricket or grasshopper in the potatoes (the one's I have decided to give a chance.)
Well, hot or not I will be planting this afternoon (beans and radishes) we will see how they do.
