2018 List of Problems... already in the past week...
Mole
Calcium deficiency
Leaf fungus/blight
Bindweed coming up
Treated the blight with chlorothalonil. Moved the 300 watt LED in which boosted the temps by 10 degrees. Trying to dry things out to get transpiration up to get over the calcium issue. The 186 may have sustained mole damage. I don’t have a backup plant so... I guess not planting a backup was a mistake?
I’m not sure if tilling earlier would have been a mistake. The amount of rain recently... could have caused over-saturation and leaching. Maybe the best thing would have been to have tilled at the first of the month and then to have covered the whole patch with a plastic sheet. But that would have chopped up the bindweed and delayed the growth of the bindweed. Instead, maybe I can kill most of it with glyphosate... and then till.
I might not till the whole garden. I think I will just till the pathways. Maybe I will do a till/no-till comparison.
