The Rude Ranch

The Rude Ranch A way to share my experiences gardening in a low space, urban garden. The dream is to grow large enough to sell the stuff I grow and make.

Trying to make the most out of the space that I have and hopefully help others that want to do something similar.

Progress! I decided to go with a walnut table top for my sewing table project. I got the boards cut to length and two of the four had a pretty noticable warp. Got everything planed, biscuits cut, and glued. Now we wait.

Time to harvest. I have been pretty lax the past few weeks about posting and progress. I have a few projects in the pipeline but I think the heat sapped my motivation. Need to find it again!

Bee balm is in bloom. Hope it brings some humming birds. Feeder is above it and ready for action.

Two week update! Everything is a little smaller than I would have thought it to be at this time. Through some research looks like a mineral deficiency. Going to head to Walmart and get some plant food and see if that perks everything up. Tomatoes in front container are thriving! Tons of volunteers as well. Tomatoes for days! 🍅
