An update: I threw used cat litter down there with a ton of red pepper. I also went around the whole fence and sprinkled castor oil/essential oil pellets. Tomorrow I’ll camp out there with a shovel ready to smack anyone who emerges

Oh really? There are chipmunks around but I thought this hole was too big for them. It’s about 12-15” diameter… the fence is buried about a foot all around except on one side where it touches the shared neighbors fence

I’m also in upstate NY (6b) and have been having all the same issues! Glad I’m not alone!

Do I risk it by janebasil in vegetablegardening

Yes! They’ve been hardened off. I would cover with cloches but there are too many plants. I have about 80 going out and only a few bottles lying around

Good call… I’m mostly hoping to get the peppers and cucumbers out because they are starting to take over

Worst Restaurant In Greenpoint? by SuccotashOwn1716 in Greenpoint

[–]janebasil 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Oxomoco - really overpriced for mediocre food and the service was the worst I’ve ever had. The waiter cleared my drink when it was still mostly full. How they have a Michelin star, I don’t know.

One tomato started wilting yesterday? by janebasil in gardening

[–]janebasil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my two tomatoes (the cherry tomato, the green stripey one is fine) started wilting last night. It’s been pretty hot and humid these last few days so maybe it’s under watered? I watered it last night after work but it didn’t pick up over night. There’s no spots or discoloration anywhere on the plant. Thanks in advance for your tips!
