Undercover…raised bed crop coop.
If you live in a suburban and/or rural area, perhaps you have dealt with rabbits or deers eating your lovely flowers and greens. I have substantially added several raised beds to my garden.

Well, I found out that the plant was full of male flowers and I need female flowers to bear fruit,Continue reading “Luffa update in the garden”
