Plan Notes

I added in some cabbage and a chocolate sunflower given to me by a Project Rise Vet. The starter plansts both sweet pepper and Two tomoatoes are up and doing good. I'll start to actually layout the garden tomorrow, April 28th and hopefully plant the carots and beets. I'll also buy the eletric fence.components. Iinstalled the electric fence in May. It took a while and I am not really satified wiht the layout. It is too close to the actual garden and it is hard to walk around to plant and weed. I'll leave it set up as is for this year and adjust it next year. 6/20/2017 the electric fence seems to be working. I installed a current on indicator. That device works great in flashes red every couple of seconds to indicate the fence is working
