Mr. Argumentor
I fab shitboxes and shitbox accessories.
Sure they don't, and 3 feet is more than enough to stop a cat.
Honestly, I don't know what's up with your mango, but I would smell the dirt.

I might try to do the former, but I think I need to wait till winter-ish?
I have been trying to feed it mango/citrus fertilizer fairly regularly as long as I've had it, I think I've been keeping a good schedule with it.
I try to make sure my pots have proper drainage so they don't rot the roots but with this pot I'm not sure if I was able to nail that, that's about the only thing I can think might be happening?

Got out this morning before the sun hit the farm.
Picked two crates of big tomatoes, half a crate of cherries, and some banana peppers.
I think we have 1 1/2 more big picks for tomatoes out there this season.
Then a load of sweet peppers hopefully if they stop blistering before they change color, I'd like them to not all be
green.
And melons. lot's more canteloupes and honeydew, and maybe even some watermelon.

Got the electric fence back up and running to full potential yesterday, fixed all the rabbit/groundhog mesh. Garden is fully protected again, which is good since zuchinni beans and cukes are taking off.

There isn't any under the melons, it's just everywhere else.
The tomato plants will get cot down in place along with all the other plants, then I'll find sufficient hay to dump on top of everything so we can till in the spring.
Then we'll do black mulch plastic rows like farms do, and drop hay and other shit in between the plastic to keep those weeds down.

Good in an open field. Harder in a fenced garden, but its worth laying out so you can do it.
it works well if you have long straight aisles with a clear path at either end.

gearing up to build some tomato trellises today after work. Ive not been happy with any of my previous attempts at tomato support, they get out of control too quick with staking, and the vines are too heavy to just be held up by the central stem. Cages are ok, but generally too small mesh, and kinda meh for support.
It seems most tomatoes would naturally be most happy just weaving their way along the ground, but that makes for difficult management. So im building these. 8 feet tall by 4 feet wide
slight angle, will weave the tomato branches through the mesh as they grow, pick from the back and front sides like i do with my cuke trellis. no pruning or tying.
