Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, zucchini, pickling cucumbers, cucamelons, and some lettuce up front. Leaf litter on the bottom of these massive 100 gallon grow bags I got for free overflow at a local city farm, to use space and limit $$ soil. Some leaf litter mixed in, and topped with some rich compost and more leaf litter.
Such pleasure to see them grow a little bit each day. It’s been a hard year, and this is giving me some hope.

Congrats, looks great.
Be careful when using netting though, especially this kind:
>**Netting and wildlife:** Wildlife can be at risk from poorly erected and managed garden netting. Very fine mesh, such as insect-proof mesh or [horticultural fleece](https://www.rhs.org.uk/prevention-protection/fleece-and-crop-covers), is one of the safer options, but it is essential to secure the edges of the mesh by burying under the soil or anchoring to a ground level board half sunken in the soil. Birds in particular can become entangled in loose netting which may result in their death or injury.
