As I stated earlier, while I was on vacation my garden was cared for with daily waterings only. No food has been added since July 19th. Here’s the project upon my return:
Is that something ripe I see?!!
I was told the blooms feel off the MiracleGro rose almost immediately. The bloom on Better World lasted an extra day or two. Both plants look healthy here.
The Better World bed:
Better World test bed. I transplanted the basil from the small container before I left.
Here you see it flowering.
Strawberries on Better World making a third (!) fruiting!

Eggplant on Better World. If you recall, my first eggplants on Better World were devoured by some critter in Early July. Yet the Miracle Gro eggplants were left alone. So here you see the Better World plants catching up to the Miracle Gro.
These eggplants (in a separate bed with Better World) were not attacked in early July.
So these make a fair comparison with the MiracleGro eggplant.

Thicker than the Better World one's, but not as long.
Strawberries on Miracle Gro.
Lots of new shoots, but no new fruits.

The Water Only bed (the Water Bed?):
Jalapeno tiny. Not sure why it’s turning black.
Eggplant taking its damn time! Nice colour though...
Better World tomatoes ripe and ready for harvest!

Raspberries on Better World have caught up to Miracle Gro while I was away.
The MiracleGro tomatoes are still solid green. Not a hint of ripening in any of them.
Raspberries on MiracleGro seem to be slowing down.
Eight coming in on the Miracle Gro side.
Ten coming in on Better World side. Larger too.
Test Bed Two: Peas...
Better World (on the right) kicking ass.
Lots of pods coming in on Better World.
One piddly pod on MiracleGro.
The Cage Match continues. Stay tuned.
