Big game hunting?

Ha' I have a few very coragious rabbits that bug around my place,no more deer since the subdivision took over the 80 acre grape vineyard :(>. But I let my back, back yard by the fruit trees grow a bit higher and allow the clovers and such to flower. This seems to have kept them at bay from what I can see.

But alas, I have traveled much this summer, and the garden has turned into a jungle. Last I mentioned I have found the 4 row onion patch, and the chili plants are just starting to flower(if you remember I was trying some seed from south of the border, and might not have the growing season long enough here to mature the fruit).

I miss the gardening thread, and have been focusing on other matters while I should be tending to the garden. Even today, 76 beautiful, and a cool breeze, but here I been most of the day reading and rereading, and most likely amassing more information than is healthy for ones soul.

To those who remember my popcorn attempt, I have about 30 stalks that are about waist high, and are looking as if I might be poppin' somethin' this fall.

Sorry I couldn't contribute to the horn worm conversation, but my tomatoes are really lush and full this year, and have shadowed most weeds. Nothin' ripe yet(tomatoes), but salaviating with every glimse.

Oh yes, I love those blueberries and they are comming in full on now, and tie me over until the rest of the fruit trees ripen.

Thanks for lettin' me bend your ear a bit. August.
