Yesterday 7/11 I purchased three five gallon pails at Home Deepooo. Brought them home and drilled a bunch of holes in them. Made platforms for each pail to sit on from the saved lumber from the ground boxes I took up. Took them out to the patio and filled two of the five gallon pails with potting mix that was in the 2 1/2 gallon buckets that were not being used. Took both pails and dumped the potting mix in a pile and mixed it up returning the potting mix to the two pails.

Today I went out and mounted the five gallon buckets to the platforms with screws so they would not get bumped around or off the platforms. Took my heavy duty wire cutters and cut the tall chimney in the cuke box into three sections leaving one section on the cuke box. Took the two remaining chimneys and mounted them to the top of the two five gallon pails. Then I took the grinding wheel I purchased and smoothed the cut edges on those three chimneys plus a couple other chimneys. I have about a thirty inch chimney for each zucchini container.

Tonight after supper I went out and transplanted two zucchini plants having one in a five gallon bucket and the other one in the former cuke box leaving the third zucchini plant in the deck container I started the seeds in. Then I put ferlizer and bone meal around the two I transplanted plus I installed a burlap mat on those two containers, Started to work on the Zucchini plant I left in the container to add ferlizer  and install the burlap mat but it had a thunder shower come in abruptly so I wrapped it up real quick putting away the supplies before it rained real hard. Will finish the third zucchini container tomorrow.

The yellow butter squash are growing nicely and I will transplant those next week.

My Charleston bell pepper seeds have sprouted. The Siberian tomato seedlings are doing fine.

It is getting into mid summer now and the container mix is drying out at an advanced rate.

Have not been to the gym in two days as I have been busy with the container garden. Will hit the gym tomorrow for about an hour. Only takes me about an hour at the gym to do my choice of exercises for that day.
