Oh, have a few cuke plants, but not much happening with them yet.
I know it's cheaper to go buy at the Farmer's Market, but I just have to plant something each year. ha Our water bill is terrible here in the desert, so I'm trying to be water wise this year.
When my children were small we lived with a "shallow" well. Every summer the water level would get lower and lower as the water table dropped towards the end of August. I couldn't spare any water for the garden. I would truck the kids bath water out with buckets to keep the garden going. Ya do what ya gotta do!!! Good luck...I hope you can keep yours going.
