It’s a proper set up.

Getting ready to go camping. Just got done watering the garden…quick breakfast, then back out there…

Conservative estimate each tomato plant has at least 5 tomatoes…300 plants. Well on our way to our goal.

We set out wanting to eat fresh, and can for the fall winter. We wanted to be able to give the same amount to our families and friends. We wanted to also donate to local soup kitchens. And, if we had enough…sell some and take the money we earn and put it back into the garden.

So far everything is thriving…fingers crossed it keeps on going.

I would think it would survive alright if it gets roots established. I’ve seen ornamental maples around here and they survive my winter conditions as do several wild varieties. :maple_leaf:

The water pump in my greenhouse evaporative cooling is already busted :rage:
It’s only been out there for 2 weeks, not even!
Unfortunately it got delivered about 2 months before I set it up, so it’s passed the return threshold.

So a bit of panic and some hope I can keep it under 42c at least.
Not sure what I’m gonna do going forward. Keeping the inside hosed down which helps a small bit. Pretty pissed, the cooler wasn’t super expensive but it also wasn’t what I’d call a small purchase.

Oh. And I took a chunk out of my palm in the process. Fan was on, forgot it was on, reached my hand in…whammo.
Have it wrapped for now but might need stitches.

Just glad it wasn’t a finger because I absolutely would’ve lost it.
