This weekend I finished installing 6 new sensors for temperature and humidity. I'm using one Arduino to get the data from 4 DS18B20 temperature probes and 2 DHT11 temperature and humidity sensors. Live data is on my website www.oceanpalace.com and graph above.

Raised Beds
I built these new raised beds in the back yard using landscaping timbers.
Here is a 5 gallon bucket with snow peas and some tomato plants planted in the raised bed beside the deck.

Ladybug Release
Seeing some aphids on my pepper plants and a lot of the leaves are curling.
I picked up a bucket of ladybugs at Skillins Greenhouse and released them in the dome because they are supposed to be a natural predator of the aphid.
Strawberry towers are starting to produce a few berries.

The Plants
I found this garden planner website and drew up a model of what I currently have planted. So far I have 3 new raised beds built and plan to build at least one more. In the greenhouse I still have Watermelon, Squash, Zucchini, and more Cabbage in pots ready for planting.
