could be the death of a planet.

I am having the best crop of tomatoes ever, but I have shade trees, and the heat is not so strong and it rains a lot.

But even that will change this month as it gets hotter. I am doing a raised bed over the rock garden now, I have giving up trying to grow things in the rock garden, just going over it. but it needs a lot of watering since it drains so well.

I use soil moist in most of my flower beds to retain the moisture so I don't have to water except in really bad times. more than 2 weeks.

See if your neighbors had been spraying for insects. they could be killing your garden - All for a perfect lawn
