My strawberries have gotten smaller??!
Comments (2)Ravi: The first flush of strawberries are always the largest. After that, they all begin to produce smaller berries, especially when the weather heats up. It will do no good to feed with fish emulsion or anything else since it is normal behavior for strawberry plants.

Comments (16)Showing -10F here this weekend. Nothing for around here, but still cold. I think our coldest temp this winter was around -14F. Usually we get a -20F ... hopefully we sneak by without that happening. My fruit trees will have a much better bloom. Last year was nasty. I ended up with 1 ! sweet cherry ... Snow falling now. Noticed how warm it has been out west. South Dakota (Black Hills) have seen temps in the mid 70Fs several times this year already. Amazing warmth. Phoenix has been in the 80Fs for the past week or so and the extended keeps them in the 80Fs... Hot west, Cold east... back and forth in the middle (here)....See MoreJust when I said I have never gotten a tomato hornworm....
Comments (15)Triple, ever since the first day I ever planted anything (a rose...and about 200 years ago), I've been obsessive about my plants. So if something ate anything, I would know. I recall an ongoing battle between me and one squirrel that to this day, I did not find a way to kill, LOL. (Another "bug" if you ask me.) Out of hundreds of tomatoes, we actually ate about 20 total thanks to that demon. Speaking of demons, I have one resident squirrel here. He is eyeing my bushes and I am eyeing him. I'm older since that last battle and have less patience--let's just leave it at that for now. LOL But on GW/Houzz, I've seen so many people post about hornworms and I shudder each time I see one, praising sweet baby Jesus that I never, ever had one. Until this year. It just obliterated big stems of all the leaves and growth. I feel like I am down to about half the potential tomatoes I had--and this poor thing is a determinate plant so it's not like I can wait for the next round. Very strange, too, because I have 7 total tomato plants here and only this one, which was technically the most robust one, is the one that got hornworms. It is, of course, the only one where I have one plant of this variety, too. Ain't life grand? :) (Meanwhile, it was two tomato hornworms that came back to triple's backyard six times each...Haha.)...See MoreWhat color or pattern have you gotten tired of fastest?
Comments (45)I have been slowly removing color from my home over the past few years and accessories as well - I am definitely embracing minimalism in middle age. I think I find the low contrast and extra space soothing since I am living with teenagers. It's funny though - I live in an old house and I feel like the simpler the rooms are, the more the old floors and chunky trim shine. Having said that I am sure I will take this too far and my house will get eventually get empty & weird but hopefully a close friend will intervene! :)...See Moresandyslopes z6 n. UT
