    UPDATE... again

    So none of my plants have died from being transplanted YET... I also bought this meter that measures ph, moisture, sun light, and fertility. I was wondering if anyone has use this or something like it... I feel the moisture readings have helped me not over water but all my tubs fertility readings are low and ph is kinda high. Any idea on how to help that? I’m doing fertilizer every 4-6 weeks and I added miracle grow when I first planted as well as when I transplanted other then that I haven’t added anything else....

    Ps finally got my first red cherry tomato. 953316BC-2595-4F2F-A3AB-E3DA26B3DF53.jpg

    Interesting looking device. I have a similar one that only measures moister, and it can be handy. I'm curious, what is it measuring that it calls "fertility" nitrogen maybe?

    Can anybody tell me if top pic is blossom end rot or something else?
    Color pattern on bottom pic is similar and I’m afraid it will end up bad like other. Thoughts?

    Taking both pic and bad fruit to garden center tomorrow

    Update on those tomatoes. Local experts I rely on ( Nashua Farmers Exchange) thinks those spots are from hail damage. I know we were expecting hail a couple times over the last ten days or so, but personally didn’t see any. Will certainly keep an eye out moving forward..

    If it is hail it is a relief to know it’s not something else.

    Was using a watering can to do my garden ( will use that from now on. Seems to work better versus hose) and flush out a couple of squash bugs. I squashed them! Everything else is going so easy with the exception of my cucurbits. A constant battle . Every day I need to watch over those squash plants but I have two zucchini with 3 ready to pick in two days

    Somebody keeps digging out the honeysuckle seedlings that I've planted along my back fence line. Probably 6 or 7 times so far. The plants haven't been killed yet, just dug out and left to dry out until I get up in the morning and put them back. I'm guessing skunk or possum, so I'm putting out my live trap tonight.
