Or, What’s in a Name?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Hello. Welcome to my gardening blog.<\/p>\n

I’ve been thinking about doing this for quite awhile. In here I hope to share my gardening experience (and inexperience), knowledge, photos (probably lots of them), questions, etc.<\/p>\n

The ‘Chuck Hole<\/strong>
\nWhen I decided to finally go ahead and create this blog I was stumped on the very first question “Name of blog”. After awhile\u00a0I finally decided on simply Wayne’s Garden<\/em> for now, until I can think of something better. The ‘Chuck Hole\u00a0<\/em>came to mind right after I made that decision. I thought of it when I was looking for a background photo (decided on the peppermint for now) and saw a<\/p>\n

\"img_1869-800\"
The ‘Chuck Hole<\/span><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

picture of one of the woodchucks’ holes.<\/p>\n

My garden has had some problems the past few years but the two biggest ones are, 1) some kind of disease or blight attacking my tomatoes (and sometimes peppers) and 2) a hungry woodchuck.<\/p>\n

That’s where the idea for The ‘Chuck Hole<\/em> came from. So the name might change to that or something similar, or something completely different. I don’t think Wayne’s Diseased Tomatoes<\/em> really works.<\/p>\n

Your ideas are welcome.<\/p>\n

Your ideas for what’s up with my tomatoes and how to cure them, are also welcome. I will post photos of them in one of the next posts.<\/p>\n

Thanks for visiting. Please subscribe and comment.<\/p>\n
