Summer 2025

My only plot of slicers this year. Gonna stuff a hundred plus plants in there and hope the fungal diseases decide to go easy on me

Let's hope that you have NO problems

I'm dubious but I'll say a prayer to the garden gods for you! Crowding plants isn't usually considered a good method.

Thanks for your garden gods prayer, I’ve certainly been sending plenty of my own. I wouldn’t call them crowded necessarily, but they will certainly be very familiar with their neighbor plants lol

It's a very neat setup, so may the garden gods also timelapse your pruning routine into a blink.
Single stem for the slicers? Do you weave them as well as the top tie? I know you're windy too, I have to say mine need a lot of support to not be crashed by the wind here. A tight row with a good weave is a pretty good setup for that.

[Mark_Thompson]

Single stem yup. I haven’t had to weave yet, knock on wood. I am a little disappointed in my sorghum sudan windbreak though, it hasn’t grown in like I hoped.
