Well, it's nearly the end of July, and I could not be happier with my "HEBs"!! Lots of tomatoes (I planted two determinate tomatoes in each box, and they are loaded!), and the cukes are going great guns. I planted one box with some little wizened up cucumber seedlings about a month ago, and they are now producing fruit. The other box has become overwhelmed....I ran to get a little wire table for them, and a couple of old lawn chairs for the tomatoes. Not pretty, but doing the job of holding everything up! I have bell peppers in a commercial EB, and they are loaded. I think everything is doing well in our unusual heat, and with being watered every day. Love my HEBs!!
