September -- adding just a bit more dirt, setting up a wee fence to protect against the scurrilous Neighbor's Dog (idiot beast has been digging in my pots. in my pots. Vile creature.)

Early October -- after planting a whole bunch of stuff, I tacked some row cover onto the fence. I had meant to use it to make a mini greenhouse, but it's been easier to drop the row cover "roof" right on top of the plants instead of worrying about construction every time it gets cold. My broccoli is trying to grow, but the vermicious cabbage loopers are attacking it. Bacillus thuringensius (sp?) to the rescue!

Later in October. Things are growing, and I've added toilet paper rolls to support leek mounds. The little plants are radishes -- no kidding, they grow fast!

This Friday -- look at all that growth!

And after I installed my heat sink, aka San Pellegrino...
And finally, in case you want to know what a plant is or when it was planted... voila!
