The 1161 seems to have grown out of the ribbon vine!
Last Thursday I decided to brew a batch of compost tea. I keep my brewer outside because the one time I brewed it in the garage the smell of fish and seaweed lingered for days. In the middle of the night we had a downpour and I had to unplug it for fear the pump would get ruined or something would catch fire. The next day I had to discard that batch and it smells awful. It had definitely gone anaerobic.
Last week we also had a day in the mid 90’s. It fried the new growth on my plants so over the weekend I built two shade structures. I went with a 30% shade cloth so we’ll see if it works.
Here's the 1566 today
