Man, it's hot here! I'm loving it though! I spent most of yesterday outside, playing in the garden :)
Here's a few updates!!
As I posted yesterday, I have whacky tomatoes popping up everywhere, and I intend to keep them! NO clue what varieties or how long they'll take to mature but that's no matter! 😆
The nasturtiums are looking lovely, no flower buds yet but it's gonna happen any day now!
And here's the empty space next to ten where the romaine never showed up! 😆
Actually, that's not true, I got TWO. 🙄
The peas are doing fantastically!! So happy we'll have fresh snap peas soon! ❤️ I'll probably plant some more this week, so we'll have a steady supply!
The broccoli, cauliflower and romanesco are looking great too!
Here's our soy, ⬇️ I planted three rows of ten and this is how many came up lol
Not a great turn out to the party there soy beans!
The Luffa is not doing well at all. I have no clue what's wrong, they're getting burnt up and just not thriving there at all. Suggestions welcome! They get full sun for the most part, a bit of shading from the other plants. This is my first time growing them so I'm not sure the issue. Too much heat? It's been crazy hot here for spring. Missing a nutrient maybe?
Hello dragonfly!
My peppers have lots of flowers! I picked off the first several to encourage the plant to grow more!
We put down some leaves to help retain the moisture in this bed. I added compost in the spring but I guess it wasn't enough to fix the issues with the soil there. It's always been super dry and dusty in that bed, it's soil that we dug up from around the yard, so it didn't get the best start! 😆
Not much left here either, the bunnies were eating up the beans and the much of the corn and carrots didn't come up :(
Boo!
The side bed is looking good though and the berries are starting to ripen now too!
Anyway, that's my story, I'm planning a visit to the greenhouse this morning, to find some plants for my latest project!
Stay tuned! ❤️
