Community Garden update
Today at the community garden, I harvested the last of the summer tomatoes before ripping out the vines. The kale is still going. I harvested some BIG broccoli and broccoli leaves for sauteing. Then I added 2 bags of chicken manure and one of steer manure and turned it into the soil. I planted carrot seeds in a small area. The rest is ready for planting soon, when I get to it. I think I need some beets going in soon.

Fertilized Citrus and Lawn
At home the rains have stopped for now, so I took the opportunity to use citrus fertilizer on the valencia, peach, pomegranate and apple trees. I also fertilized the back lawn. I've been using worm tea regularly on the bougainvillea and pomegranate as well. The worm castings I used months ago in a potted plant on the front porch seems to have halted the white fly.
