				Best garden ever
			 
 My vegetable gardens are insane this year.I have only 4 zucs and 4 yellow squash plants and I have more of each than I know what to do with.Tomatoes are out of control,I'll be picking heavy in 6wks easy.Peppers and eggplants also doing well.Some added new soil and a little manure at the beginning of the year makes a huge difference.

				 | yes I agree it is shaping up to be a decent garden year (even though I got a late start and we have been watering like crazy) 
The problem is "eating off the land" and working for a living dont go hand in hand very well    though I have lost a few more stubborn pounds because of all the abundant veggies   |
