Last night we got he first really good rain in at least year - or more! Praise the Lord! It washed-out some carrot and spinach seedlings, but that's perfectly all right!!

I said something here that needs correction. I said that I wouldn't need any backflow prevention with the fertilizer injector because this well is used only for irrrigation - BUT, I forgot about the cast iron pressure pump and the galvanized pressure tank! Nitrogen fert would corrode-out those componenets in a matter of months, if not weeks!
