      The meaning being that plants do better when you’re actually there, looking them over, pinching out the suckers, removing the dead leaves, staking, pruning, etc. Certainly it’s true this year. I have been hell on weeds.

      Ha! I just looked it up and it’s Greek. Pliny the Elder, apparently. “The best fertilizer is the master’s eye.” Which changed to “the best fertilizer is the heel of the farmer” which then morphed to the shadow thing. https://www.barrypopik.com/index.php/new_york_city/entry/the_best_fertilizer_is_the_gardeners_shadow …

      The Monarda fistulosa has been growing great in pots, though it’s so tall and rather floppy that it’s not that great looking. But the bees love it.pic.twitter.com/DkjfApDNge

      Kevin just came out in a kilt and Aggretsuko tank top and flopped into a chair with a groan like a buffalo settling down for a dust wallow.

      Planting tomatillos in the old wheelbarrow sounded like a great idea until they were suddenly four feet tall and there was no way to stake them. Hmm. Okay, not one of my better ideas.pic.twitter.com/mfoVuy7WyX

      Let the record show that wheelbarrow planters are for LOW plants.

      This purslane is very orange rather than pink. I just tossed it in a terra-cotta pot and hung it off the edge of a raised bed with one of those deck-hangar thingies.pic.twitter.com/UclhFCcw83
