Re: RPresta,
Yeah, the mattress might yet be a keeper... maybe not, though!

I was wondering what had ever happened with the mattress you'd ordered. Now I know. Interesting that more foam helps. It's good to know. I can just imagine how pretty your garden is.

Re: CCT,
I read somewhere that used coffee grounds on top of the soil is good for the plants and also discourages flies and bugs that hang out in the soil. I tried it on my avocado plants, and it seems to be working.
The doves have begun decorating, too--there is a dry branch of something like the local tumbleweed sticking up from the nest now.

Ha ha, Ciel pulled young carrots for lunch today. OK., they were planted in a tunnel in a trench of soft soil. then I had to plant twice as the first seeding was sparse. You have given me an idea I'll plant another crop now but we do get the carrot fly, one can get resistant seed butt some place a net around the bed as the fly apparently does not fly very high. Nice that the doves are returning evidentially it is a good spot to rear the young.
