This shot shows the 5 new caged slots. This year there are a total of 14 caged positions as opposed to only 9 last year. Each 3 cu ft. container got about 1/2 cu. ft. of mushroom compost. To help thwart another outbreak of blight from ruining the entire crop, tomatoes will be separated. Of the 14 positions, tomatoes take only 8 -- the other six will be something else. At least two will be Cleome which gets huge and attracts bees. The tomato layout is as follows.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

We'll see how well this works.
