    The toms in the greenhouse have grown above their supports and it is much too early in the season to top them off, so I am installing cord to the peak of the greenhouse to support them while they grow on.

          I think by the time you pay for a splitter and another hose, you might have been able instead have spent less on one of those good quality back and forth ones. Then when it gets hot, you can run through it too! And post pics :heehee:

                            “The aim of the text message is to ask people to think about how they’re using water – using a sprinkler might green up your lawn but that water would be better used for drinking or washing."

                            I always watch/listen to the news as soon as i wake up i ask Alexa for a local news briefing,
                            One thing i don't do Gail is give gas/electric/hardly anyone my phone number.
