50% Bleach and water, put it in a pump up sprayer, and go to town on those nasty webs. After it sits for a minute or two just hose it off with a regular water hose and high pressure nozzle.
Remember to wear old clothes, as the orange shirt I had on was speckled white all over!
I do have the spiders coming back now after a month or so, so when i clean them off again i will look for something to run them off.

Tickle Me plants!
I bought these cute little plants as seeds online, about 3 bucks for 100. You can look for Mimosa Pudica and grow some for yourself!

Upside Down Tomatoes!

Ive seen alot of talk about the upside down growing systems this year and thought I'd do a little experiment with it myself. I had some left over wood from a project and basically just built a long window planter on stilts. I cut 6 holes in the base and layered it with landscaping fabric. I used a bag of soil from the local nursery and picked 6 different types of tomatoes. I didnt get them labeled right so i dont have a clue which one is which.

They seem to be growing ok, a little slower than the garden tomatoes though. A bunch of these lil guys just popped out in the last few days.

When the hot Texas sun started coming out in the last month I had to water the planter almost daily, which I fixed by adding a layer of mulch on top, it did the trick and now the moisture lasts for a week or so.
