The pepper plant still didn't look good so I think it went too long in the heat with hot soil. The dirt in the bucket is staying wet on the top but the plastic walls are so thin it bakes the soil further down. No peppers coming from that plant unfortunately.
The dirt is also dry in the other bed, not bothering to use water on it as long as it's hot. Doesn't do any good and even though I'm not paying for the water, every little bit counts.
I wanted to show that the other lady hasn't done anything in her beds either due to the gophers. Or voles or whatever they are. Given my research, those are either baby gophers or voles. Gophers 9 times out of 10 leave a mound, so far 9 out of 10 of these holes don't have a mound. No matter what they are, it is a rodent that needs to go away.
We are just wanting to have some satisfaction of growing vegetables for ourselves and management is not taking any responsibility for the area because it's up to the tenant to do it. Does that seem logical? They provide a garden area and yet when a pest comes in verified from the rest of the complex it's suddenly not their problem because the garden areas are our responsibility.
Well if I had more money to spend on remediation I would totally do it.
