Ok now I know who got the green thumb that passed me over I dont know about that. I cheat, I water everyday because it's in the 80s or 90s everyday, and use an 8 yard truck load of manure every other year or so, plus fertiiser from the co-op, and the usual chemical for blight and insects if I have too.

Hey les.....do you have any idea...why my mater plant leaves are curiling up. They always get watered....and are in a raised bed,10” wide boards. We have been giving some miracle grow every 10 days or so. It been real hot and humid here for a week or10 days. Thanks Ness

That's not cheating. That's working hard and smart. The soil you made looks very good. Great garden! Keith

Our yard is the size of a postage stamp, soooo, this is what we have. There are 3 bell pepper plants and two jalapeno plants on the other side of the pole beans. Smallest garden I have ever had, but, better than nothing.

Miracle grow is powerful stuff. My beans looked tough shortly after they came up but look good now. They experienced a big of fertilizer burn until we had a bunch of rain.

Ness , I have seen them curled leaves and dont know the answer, probably what James said though, and they'll probably come out of it.
