Top Dressing, Feed and Water The Vegtables

No different demands than us humans. I gave my three potted vegetables
a top dressing of soil, some new organic food in pallet form. Along with
a good drink of some collected rain water. These plants need to be watered
at a minimum of once a day and during a short hot spell last week, twice
a day.


I also tasted two cherry tomatoes the other day and they were really good.
Light years from how they tasted this past late summer. The tomato plant
in the back is from last year. The one's in the front are cuttings from last
year's tomato and already showing some blossoms. The cuttings aren't as
deep green as it's parent plant. The main difference that I contribute to
that is the soil, a compost not as complete as the original batch and also
a bit more sun. Will see how this new organic fertilizer does along with
the ramped up the watering schedule. I should consider a drip irrigation
to quench it's thirst.
