We will be getting more rain for the next several days.
So hoping to get the kitchen painted and ready to put the new floor in.

I haven’t had tons of great luck. I planted some last year. 1 of the 4 plants died. This year they are producing decently well. The best advice I can give is mulch with peat moss and use ammonium sulfate to raise the acidity

Well folks, I got my tomatillo seeds. I'm gonna kind of break from instructions. They clearly state, start them indoors... Started them in their pot, but will move the selected four plants once they are 8" tall... Second half of instruction is bury 2/3rds of the plant when transplanting. It's funny as that's exactly what I did for my tomatoes. Once planted in the garden they were only about 4" tall. Now they are about 18"... And I have a 1" cucumber.... Still worried about the squash as it was weak and might not make it.

Arielle started a blueberry thread
A few years ago and George shared a lot of helpful info on growing them.

Has anyone ever tried to grow tomatillo? If I can find seed, is it too late to try? Anything special I need to know? When I want them, I pretty much have to drive more than an hour to get them... Thinking about growing them and canning the different things I make with them.

got the latest countryside magazine today in the mail, guess who has a article on tomatillo's in it, you might want to check it out, also had a couple of recipes in it.
