We had enough rain last night to wash away my latest Diatomaceous Earth application, so I'll need to dust everything again before dark.

I had a few other things to accomplish first. A while back, @lexikon082 predicted the runt of the zucchini plants would do just fine. He was right! It's not only keeping up with the other plants...

...it's the third plant to have a blossom! That means it's jumped ahead of two bin-mates! Now we just have to wait for some female blooms to show up. Fingers crossed that's next.

The tomato plant is coming along well. It's finally starting to produce more blossoms. There are a total of six now that have shown up over the last week. Yay!

Somehow I managed to get a great shot of the peppers today. The fourth one is just barely started and hard to see at this angle. A few days should remedy that.

The poles beans were one of things on my to-do list. They needed more dirt, some fertilizer, and the rightmost bucket's cage was too wobbly.

I had picked up some veggie/tomato fertilizer a while ago. I was wary of using it in the containers for fear of damaging the plants.

So, after some pondering, I decided to mix it in with some potting soil since the buckets needed more dirt, too. Hopefully, that will buffer the negative effects and allow the positive ones to work.

Once well mixed, I put most of it on the poles beans. I also used some of my twine to anchor the wobbly cage.

I had a little of the soil mixture left over, so I divided that between the pepper and tomato plants for a little boost.

The next project focused on getting the peas some additional rigging to accommodate the height the plants are reaching. The tallest has topped the uppermost crossbar of the trellis!

I used the support branch as a starting point and then placed the rigging in the path of the vines. That approach seems to be working well even if the whole thing looks wacky!

The cabbage is about the same. That's actually good news. No new damage and ready for another dusting of DE.

The brussels sprouts are slowing getting taller. I wish they would shoot up a little faster to outpace the bugs. In the meantime, they'll get dusted again, too.

Stay Tuned For The Next Installment - Coming Soon!
