Your garden looks great! I notice red squares-are you, by any chance using red mulch for tomatoes, if so, have you in the past..and does it really work?

I was wondering about the red squares, too!

Yes, I am using those red trays this season. I've been using red mulch now for years, I think it does work, but mainly it keeps the weeds down and the splash from inoculating the leaves with blight from the soil. Well, it keeps it down to a dull roar! I get more tomatoes than I can use before they die every late summer.
