Third (and maybe final!) arrangement of soaker hoses. Planted out the peppers and celery from 06/02 and many of the 06/26 seedlings. Started a third batch of radishes. Thinned rutabagas – cooked and ate the leaves and stems. Replaced a section of PVC pipe, 45° elbow, and hose bib used for watering the bushes in the front yard. |
