Lucy's Garden Spot

- Urban gardening in Dorchester, MA


Today Paul set up the rain barrel while Sabrina and I made our first perennial bed. I edged it, but we'll need to redo some of the sides because they need to be taller.

Last night I tried out the drip irrigation system that I had installed in the first vegetable bed. It did not soak through to the middle like I had expected. I finished watering with the regular hose. I added about 1 cup of garden sulfur to the blueberry plants we planted last weekend with hopes to increase the acidity of the soil.

Paul planted two more raspberry plants yesterday and replanted one of the dinky originals I got at a box store. No more box store plants for me - promise!
