![]() We used 4 trellises – two at each end – and grew the third watermelon plant on the soil in the middle. ![]() We planted 2 butternut squash plants and 3 watermelon plants in one of those beds. These beds have the deepest soil I’ve ever used in my raised bed gardens, and I was frankly stunned at how large our harvests were last year.ĭeep soil can have a huge difference on how well your plants grow. These beds are made from concrete (cinder) blocks, and are 18 inches high, a little over 3 feet wide, and almost 16 feet long – for a total of 50 square feet each. We built new garden beds last year, to make it easier for me to garden with my disability. But I still usually grow a spring crop before the watermelons, and a fall crop after them. ![]() I give my watermelon plants the whole bed to themselves. Any time you restrict their root growth, the plant will become stunted and not produce as much.Īlso, once their vines start taking off (maybe 3-4 feet long), I no longer grow other plants in the same bed with them. I want my plants to grow as large and vigorously as possible, to produce a big crop. This is one reason that I don’t put weed barrier under my raised garden beds. I’ve found the roots growing several feet outside the small garden bed they were planted in. These roots will go down as deep as they can, and sidewise for a long distance. Just because they will be growing vertically up a trellis doesn’t mean that their roots will remain in a small area at the base of the trellis. 2) Give them the best soil, as deep as possible, in your raised bed. This is a watermelon plant growing in a 50 square foot raised bed with two young espalier apple trees. So, sometimes you can succeed, even if you “break” the rules! Just don’t count on a good harvest with less than full sunlight of 8 hours or more. It only received about 6 hours of sunlight, but I still harvested 3 large watermelons from that bed. However, a couple of years ago, I took a chance and planted a watermelon in a 50-square-foot bed (about 3′ x 16′) with two young 2-year-old espalier apple trees. But if you select the right variety, take good care of them, and train them up a trellis, you can enjoy fresh melons from your own small garden beds.ġ) Make sure these plants get full sunlight – 8 hours or more. Yikes! There’s no avoiding that they are large, vigorous plants. If you’ve been avoiding growing watermelons because your garden is too small, wait no longer! You can grow a watermelon plant in a small 4′ x 4′ raised garden bed – if you use a trellis.Ī single watermelon plant, given good growing conditions, can almost fill a 15-foot-wide circle on the ground.

Most gardeners put 2-3 seeds in each cell, but if you don’t have many seeds, just place one per cell. Using a seed dibber or your fingertip, carefully sow the seeds about a ¼ inch deep in the seed starting mix. The seed starting soil mix should be about a half inch from the top of each cell. ![]() Then water the whole tray to help the potting mix settle. Plant tomato seedsįill the seedling tray up with potting soil so the mix goes into all the cells. It’s best to wait until nighttime temperature lows are above 50☏ (10☌). Green Zebra plants can be damaged at temperatures below 43☏ (6☌), and will certainly be killed by frost. Don’t put them outdoors until the threat of frost has passed. Tomato plants are very sensitive to cold. Tomato seeds are generally sown indoors in February-April, depending on the climate. Green Zebra tomatoes can be grown at home from seed or can be purchased as potted seedling plants from a plant nursery. If growing from seed, order your Green Zebra tomato seeds in the winter (or early spring) and plant them indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost in your area. Growing Green Zebra Tomatoes is quite similar to growing other types of indeterminate tomatoes with long vines. “The most complex, and often superbly delicious, varieties are those that retain their green coloring when fully ripe.” Epic Tomatoes: How to Select and Grow the Best Varieties of All Time, by Craig LeHoullier How to plant Green Zebra tomatoes? You can pair it with other top-tasting varieties like Brandywine, Cherokee Purple, Sungold (another modern introduction), and Black Krim for a colorful fresh salad. The Green Zebra is therefore a favorite of chefs and tomato lovers alike. While this tomato is a new variety (1983), it manages to retain the old-fashioned tomato aroma and enhance it with a subtle astringent freshness. Yet it is not overly acidic (as might be expected from a green tomato. The taste of this tomato is crisp and zingy – almost spicy. Green Zebra tomatoes are famous for their unique flavor profile combining a rich, creamy sweetness with a fresh, tangy bite. While the fruits are not overly heavy, the vines are large and require support to keep the tomatoes off the ground. Green Zebra plants produce best when given a support structure such as a vertical tomato stake and/or an outer support cage. Vines routinely grow to be 4-6 feet long (or longer). Green Zebra tomato plants are indeterminate with long vines typical of the variety’s heirloom tomato parentage. While refining the stripes, he discovered that a darker green stripe with a regular pattern accompanied a more interesting tangy flavor, which now defines the “Green Zebra.” The tomato is now offered by many different seed companies.” Something of a legend: An interview with Tom Wagner, by Jessamyn Tuttle, Grow Northwest (2012) The stripes were added later from a plant he found while visiting an experimental garden in Ames, Iowa. “After hundreds of crosses, about a quarter of the resulting fruits were crack resistant, and he was getting a few yellow and green tomatoes in the mix. Ripe tomatoes don’t crack as easily as some other varieties. Green Zebra tomatoes are medium-sized globe-shaped tomatoes (1.5-2.5″ wide), with each fruit weighing 3-4 ounces (a quarter pound). This cultivar is also known for its complex taste, which combines a rich, creamy sweetness and a refreshing sharp/tart bite. Green Zebra tomatoes are known for their characteristic green peel with dark green stripes running from the stem down to the blossom end. “The early varieties out of breeding work with the striped gene….Green Zebra, Elberta Girl, Banana Legs (Banana Fingers) Schimmeig Stoo, Schimmeig Creg, Green Nails, Brown Derby (striped version) Green Bell Pepper, and a few others started quite a “diaspora” especially with my issuance of my TATER MATER SEED catalogs starting with the 1983 premiere” STRIPED tomato varieties bred by:(Tom Wagner), Tomatoville Forum, by Tom Wagner (Crosstalk™ Forum Moderator), (2013) The Green Zebra Tomato is now one of the most famous striped tomatoes and has inspired many other new striped tomato cultivars. The Green Zebra Tomato is open-pollinated, and although not yet old enough to be an heirloom tomato, it is termed “Heirloom by Descent”. Wagner used heirloom tomato cultivars to breed a new variety with a green peel, vertical stripes, and crack-resistant skin. The Green Zebra Tomato was introduced by tomato breeder Tom Wagner of Tater-Mater Seeds in 1983. ![]() ![]() 'Account for' refers to provisioning for an entity's involvement in an action/operation.Įg: A good football club must account for player salaries when ( transitive ) To estimate, consider (something to be as described).'Take into account' is used in contexts where an entity is regarded/considered/given thought for an operation/action.Įg: A football club must take into account the fans' feelings. ![]() ( intransitive, now rare ) To give an account of financial transactions, money received etc.( obsolete, transitive ) To present an account of to answer for, to justify.Compare count.Īccount ( third-person singular simple present accounts, present participle accounting, simple past and past participle accounted) Swedish: (please verify) abonnemang (sv), (please verify) konto (sv)įrom Old French acounter, accomptere et al., from a- + conter ( “ to count ” )).Romanian: (please verify) seamă (ro) f, (please verify) cont (ro) n (7)Ĭyrillic: (please verify) ра̀чӯн m Roman: (please verify) ràčūn (sh) m.Italian: (please verify) sottoscrizione (it) f, (please verify) conto (it) m, (please verify) abbonamento (it) m.Azerbaijani: (please verify) hesab (az).Turkish: please add this translation if you can.Italian: utenza (it) f, conto (it) m, fruizione (it) f.Hungarian: azonosító (hu), felhasználónév (hu), fiók (hu), felhasználói fiók, felhasználói azonosító.Dutch: account (nl) m or n (to an electronic service).Thai: please add this translation if you can.Swedish: redogörelse (sv), redovisning (sv).Spanish: reporte (es) m, relato (es) m, versión (es) f, relato (es) m.Italian: resoconto (it) m, descrizione (it) f, racconto (it) m.Hungarian: beszámoló (hu), jelentés (hu).Hungarian: számla (hu), bankszámla (hu).take account of, or take into account: to take into consideration to notice.on one's own account: for one's own interest or behalf.on account of: for the sake of by reason of because of.make account of: to hold in estimation to esteem as, he makes small account of beauty.make account: (Obsolete): to have an opinion or expectation to reckon.in account with: in a relation requiring an account to be kept.a writ of account: (Law): a writ which the plaintiff brings demanding that the defendant shall render his just account, or show good cause to the contrary - called also an action of account.account current: a running or continued account between two or more parties, or a statement of the particulars of such an account.A statement in general of reasons, causes, grounds, etc., explanatory of some event a reason of an action to be done.The Pueblo bank has advised that the operator opened an account at that bank with currency, and a few days later withdrew the amount. 1910, Journal of the American Bankers Association Vol.( accounting ) A registry of pecuniary transactions a written or printed statement of business dealings or debts and credits, and also of other things subjected to a reckoning or review.From Middle English acounte, from Anglo-Norman acunte ( “ account ” ), from Old French aconte, from aconter ( “ to reckon ” ), from Latin computō ( “ to sum up ” ). ![]() If you’re a paranoid control freak, or just a cautious person who doesn’t want to lose a lot of hard work, Growly Backup should be in your toolkit.

Most professional property management companies have processes in place that ensure timely security deposit returns and explanations of any deductions. While you hopefully won’t experience any issues with your landlord or property manager, it’s always a good idea to be informed. This article is meant to be informative and helpful and shouldn’t be taken as legal guidance. If you find yourself in this situation, be sure to consult an attorney for guidance. The landlord would also be responsible for your reasonable attorney fees and court costs. The Illinois Security Deposit Return Act states that the landlord will be liable for two times the security deposit in addition to the original deposit. If your landlord or property manager does not provide a written explanation of security deposit deductions or hasn’t returned your deposit within the above timeframes, or has breached some other aspect of your lease, you may be able to take legal action.

![]() The estate vineyards of Opus One, comprised of four parcels, sit in the western portion of the famed Oakville AVA in Napa Valley. It remains an ongoing testament to the founders’ vision of a singular wine that transcends generations. Rising gracefully from the vineyards, Opus One winery stands in subtle celebration of the land and the open space that surrounds the estate. Guided by the vision of our founders, winemaker Michael Silacci combines intuition and technical acumen with the dual perspective of viticulturist and winemaker. From tasting berries to careful sorting and extended aging in new French oak barrels, each stage of the winemaking process is afforded the same meticulous consideration and attention. After 18 months, the Opus One wine is bottled and held an additional 15 months until release on October 1st each year. Place, often defined as terroir, represents the geography, the climate and the essential human element which is captured in the wine’s balance between power and finesse, structure and texture. The essence of time is expressed in Opus One wine by the character of each vintage. The facial profile of the two founders is visible on their iconic label. Producing luxury wines from its Napa Valley vineyards, the partnership made its first vintage in 1979 and has made wine at Opus One since 1991. Opus One is a partnership founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Pauillac, France, and renowned Napa Valley vintner, Robert Mondavi. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec.Learn about Opus One, it’s history, the winery and the wine. ![]() Very refined in feel, with seamless structure extending the finish so the fruit can linger. The blend is 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot.Įlegantly styled, despite some serious heft, this offers a mix of alluring mulberry, griotte and cassis notes bearing a gently mulled edge, while flashes of apple wood, sweet bay leaf and red tea flicker along the edges. It's another beautiful wine from this team. I don't think it has the same precision as the 2018, but it brings another level of hedonism. Beautiful black raspberry, cassis, toasted spice, lead pencil, and subtle oak all make an appearance, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a rounded, layered mouthfeel, impressive tannins, and a great finish. Similarly ruby/purple-hued, the 2019 Opus One is cut from the same cloth as the 2018 yet has a touch more baby fat and opulence, at least as this stage. A blend of 78% cabernet sauvignon, 8% merlot, 7% petit verdot, 6% cabernet franc and 1% malbec. Fantastic length and structure to the wine, with tightness and focus. The purity of fruit is really something else here, with currants and fresh flowers, such as violets and roses. Tasted as a barrel sample, this is a truly magnificent Opus One in the making! Full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with juicy black, blue and red fruits, framed by velvety tannins and background freshness, finishing on a compelling earthy/mineral note. This year, with the 2019s, he was still tweaking the blend, but he did mention that this is "pretty close to the final blend." Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Opus One leaps from the glass with notes of Black Forest cake, Morello cherries, mulberries and fresh blackcurrants plus hints of licorice, wilted roses, Sichuan pepper and iron ore. Winemaker Michael Silacci commented that usually the blends are finished in January or February after the vintage. A delicate dark chocolate bitterness lingers on the finish.īlend: 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 2% Malbec The freshness and soft glow of acidity create a subtle tension with dark fruit flavors, savory herbs, espresso, and cocoa. The creamy, satiny texture is framed by fine-grained tannins. The Opus One 2019 has intense aromas of black plum, blueberry, black currant, and dried rose petals, accentuated by mineral undertones. **#30 James Suckling's Top 100 USA Wines of 2022** ![]() said Wednesday their combined vehicle sales in Europe rose 0.1 percent in May from a year earlier.
