Yes, my bike rides are usually towards emptier areas, and I'm in the less populated part of the state. The photos from the previous post are obviously not from somewhere empty. Some people assume since the overall population density is high, there's not much undeveloped land.

I wonder that too. You can see the sidewalk being disturbed for sure. We got similar situation in downtown areas here (not the narrow streets, the trees with cement/bricks around them)

New camera? Great photos! Clouds came out perfect with the lighting at the surface.
I like that down the road photo. Has everything from dense trees, views of the hill, open field. Just needs a dirt road in the shot..

All I have are Daffodils and Hyacinths. Tulips never came out. There's barely any flowers or colors on the ground from bulbs. Weird. Just from people buying the cell trays of flowers and planting them. The annuals. Perennials having a hard time this year

2 weeks away from transplanting. I need to figure out how to slow the growth a bit for the Tomatoes. So healthy but so early. Damn. Miracle Grow Organic Soil. Plants have never been fertilized at all. Soil, Water, Light, and Air flow. That's it.

Soil still 38-41°F. Gets 8 hours of sun a day.

I might put black plastic down to get a jump start.

Yes, that's lower than the state as a whole, which 840 people per square mile. The county I live in is exactly 300 per square mile.

My county is 1467. Most of that comes from the SW end. Which borders NY. Stamford alone is constructing a ton of buildings lately. Going up like mushrooms when I drive by! Trying to become a mini NYC.

State of CT is 738 PPSM.

You live in one of the most stupidly and recklessly designed cities on earth in which useless suburbanization takes huge amount of space, so I hope that 3/4 is mentioned as too much.

My tomatoes haven't been doing that well due to the excessive rainfall we've received. I trimmed off the bottom branches that turned brown & yellow, so hopefully that will help.



I haven't been able to plant anything recently since the ground has stayed saturated. More storms in the forecast tomorrow, which will likely bring another inch or two of rain. So I may not be able to plant anything until next weekend.
