That does seem to be a problem in these containers with many plants &#8211; weak trunks at the soil-edge.  The other continues to grow.  This morning I planted roma tomatoes in the empty half. They may not have time but I had the seeds and figured I&#8217;d give them a shot.<\/p>\n<p>Our herb box is picking up.  We also got another pot with basil just behind the sunflowers.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kateandryan.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/dscn1439.jpg\" title=\"Herb Box 2005-07-03\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kateandryan.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/thumb-dscn1439.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"337\" alt=\"Herb Box 2005-07-03\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Thai tomatoes are doing well.

This morning I planted some thumbelina carrots.  It might be a bit warm but the box does get a fair amount of shade.  I guess we&#8217;ll see if they do anything.  The remaining sunflower in the box is slowly getting bigger &#8211; I think it&#8217;d like more sun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time just keeps flying past.
