Tinker Tuesday for April 8, 2025

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service

Green crops- plant the right one for your temperature range and keep it watered. Nitrogen fertilizer.

Tomatoes- plants from a nursery in a raised bed, with a cage. Keep it watered.

Fruits- generally take sandy soil, not clay. Usually takes a lot of water.

Peppers, okra- very heat tolerant.

Squash- needs good drainage, but also plenty of water. Probably best to plant in a berm or a pot that drains well.
