1992 "Dry" Garden

Notice the short-throw sprinklers on white stakes down the solitary
raised bed. Some water reaches the savoy cabbage two rows this
side
of the sprinklers. The olraecea kale row gets no water at all.
The carrots
are those you saw in the "carrot" photo, spaced one
foot apart. These
rows are about five feet apart. There are some nice beets in the
foreground of the carrot row but the photo does not do them justice.
The hose was used to water the indeterminate tomatoes climbing
strings up the "X" support, upper-right in the picture.
The pole bean
trellis in the background is sited so as to stop the water from
the sprinklers,
thus getting a little more than its "share." Behind
the pole beans are vining
curcubits--melons and squash in row #9. Nothing whatsoever can
be seen
of row 10 where the potatoes grew. They grew great! We got almost
250 pounds from 125 row feet.
