At the community garden plot:

• mulched most of the pepper plants (those not surrounded by other crops) with coffee grounds and grass clippings
• weeded the tomato beds
• put down two leafgro bags as plastic mulch, caged first five tomato plants (need more plastic)
• mulched more paths
• killed first potato beetle and a few small cabbage worms; there're some other beetles out there, shaped like lightning bugs, that make me nervous
• fertilized the onions and garlic with fish emulsion
