So, the garden staples arrived today. They are definitely 6" long, not presented inaccurately. They should hold rather well. The box of 500 of them was really heavy! I think my mail carrier hates me.
In addition the new bike battery arrived the same day.
She definitely hates me.
Started putting the staples to use this evening. Tacking down the edges of the plastic sheeting in the tomato patch.
The dog keeps getting ticks even though I have sprayed him once a week. Sprayed him again this evening. Then took the garden sprayer, filled it with insecticide and sprayed the entire gallon in the back yard where the dog has access. Sprayed the sides of the house in barriers around doors and windows. Inside the house and same barrier to the rest of the house. Avoided areas where I may affect beneficial insects.
The drip emitters I got don't seem to be working very well. Guess I need to get pressure compensation emitters. Or just manually water the tomato plants for a couple of weeks and then get the plants in the ground. After they've recovered from frost damage.
