gardening

Gardening is a art that must be learned. My son Sammy has helped with the garden this year and nothing has turned out right.The lettuce is in spots. the radishes are a few here and a few there.

I grow my tomatoes in old car tires which has always been a good way for me to grow tomatoes. I buy top soil and fill the tires and every year I have a bountiful crop. This year Sammy went to get the top soil. I noticed when I went to open the sacks something odd. It said top soil, good for filling pot holes in the drive way.

The soil was just a hard rock. The tomatoes after 3 weeks were not growing. I went to walmart yesterday and bought new soil and new tomato plants. I dug out the soil which was like concrete, put in new soil and new plants. Here I am the last of May and just started my tomatoes.

I think the tomatoes will grow will now. I had 3 plants in my garden and they were doing fine so I know it was that stupid stuff in the tires that wasn't made to grow anything.

Live and learn.
