A lot has been happening:
- Final pole drug into place and buried.
- Electric fence wire extended onto that pole to treated 4x6.
- Barbed wire removed from T-posts.
- Unbarbed wire strung around poles at 24", 36" and 48".
- Twelve foot gate hung on pole nearest garage.
- 3/4" water pipe stub dug up and extended about 25' towards the south so it could service the middle of the entire patch.
- Stub extended 10' into driveway for later trenching and extension to the center circle.
- Regular white PVC 1/2" painted gray and installed on southwest column.
- Long stretch of Romex stripped and black wire extended from Zareba 2 mile fence charger to gate pole and then to the rest of the fence with 17 gauge aluminum wire.
- Rototilled and planted an east-west line of watermelon and cantaloupe.
- Installed white trellis and supported it with existing T-post and two others I removed from pole barn enclosure.
- Planted bitter melon at south base of trellis.
- Rototilled patch south of easternmost honey locust and planted while heirloom wheat.
- Added a wire trellis on a north-south direction to the white trellis.
- Planted asparagus where the garlic died.
- Trimmed down hand truck axle housing to get new solid wheels on.
- Cleaned mud from last rain off truck.
- Looks like nigela sativa is trying to sprout.
I have more sorghum on order and some other seeds that will be planted in this westernmost section of the enclosed garden.
