We're having a heat wave here. I'd have my seeds in the ground and the tomatoes set out in their little water greenhouses but I'm a couple of weeks behind due to doc's orders about lifting and stuff. Probably a good thing. Frost always waits until it can do the most damage.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749684475391974742.post-13218594536948727512013-05-13T23:51:51.658-04:002013-05-13T23:51:51.658-04:00Your garden sounds great!

I put the bags on when I plant them in the garden until the weather is stable and all danger of frost has passed. The next year I use clean new bags so I don't spread blight. My cages are smaller and I slip grocery bags. <br /><br />I haven't started and tomatoes this year. Maybe you need some catnip planted in another location to lure the cat away from your herb garden<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JBJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749684475391974742.post-43270373056845408852013-05-13T08:58:27.127-04:002013-05-13T08:58:27.127-04:00Hope you weathered the frost.
