Everything is lush, green and flowering. The front yard looks great, we just hope that no storms come and destroy it. It really is a tropical paradise.  Billy shot these photos today.

Experimenting with different mixes of perlite and vermiculite for proper drainage of the hydroponic planters, we are trying to keep it 2 to 1, so that the afternoon rainstorms don't flood the plants. We have getting about 2" of rain daily. The tomatoes want to burst from all the water. Other plants just can't retain nutrients.

We placed some cute sea creatures in the guest bath to complete the look of an underwater scene, and the theme of the bathroom. .
