Almost Self-Reliant
This morning I took some photos of the tomato, Basil and onion garden I planted. There are three rings in the back garden behind the chicken coop. Two I use for different vegetables, herbs and flowers depending on the season. The third ring has a Goji Berry bush and some dill that is giong to seed at the moment.
Last week I bought some tomato plants, I don't have good luck trying to grow them from seed. Though, I do get volunteers once and a while. Anyhow, I bought some yellow pear, and what I thought were cherry tomatos, but.. they are Orange "cherry" tomatoes. I decided I needed some red ones! I bought a red pear and a six pack of patio tomatoes.
I planted the red pear in the center, and the patio tomatoes 2 plants to a cage. Then put in basil and onions. On Monday I think I will add some tiny marigolds around the edges of the ring.
The upturned bottles are my "drip system"
I probably should thin out the baby basils.

The drip waters sound interesting. So they just slowly release water, is that it? Do you have to buy them or can you make them?
