"In my garden, it's something like:
- plant one and only one small Epazote
- water just enough to get it established
- completely neglect it through the remainder of the summer
- allow to go to seed at the end of the season
- count on having epazote…"

I love the pictures you've posted on your page. I seriously think something is missing from my soil. My bell peppers do extremely well but my tomatoes just aren't ever happy. They grow and set fruit but the leaves aren't big and lush like my tomatoes in N. Calif. They start out seeming OK but as they grow they look sadder and sadder. I think a soil analysis is in order. I'm going to try to locate a local place to do it, otherwise, Chris mentioned one out of state that is very reasonable.
So, what is the Lady Bug thing you mention below? Just curious.
I also want to take the Master Gardener course and get certified but it's always scheduled at a bad time for me, plus, last Winter I tried but didn't realize you have to register two months in advance. Maybe this year I'll make it.
