How Does Your Garden Grow….

I thought I’d give you a little update on our garden progress. Here is the first post so you can compare picture if you so choose.

My husband has had quite a time with mole crickets. They love to feed on the roots of our  plants. So he did have to resort to putting some poison “around” some areas to head them off.

I took these picture about 2 days ago after 2 days of really good rain. It’s like the garden sprung to life.

We are all ready eating the romaine lettuce and the chard. Both are delicious.

There are a lot of green beans that are ready to be picked and the onions are looking good .

There are a lot of little ears of corn starting to “pop” up. Ha!  Our cucumbers have tons of flowers on them and a few that are already an inch long.

We’ve never grown peas before so we aren’t sure if they’re doing well or not. LOL! They’re still green and growing so we figure that’s a good thing. It’s hard telling how our carrots are doing but the tops are tall and green so we’ll see.

Not pictured are tomato  and bell pepper plants. He just planted those so they are still really small.

Our hope is to till out more land for our squash and melons for our summer crop. We also want to plant more strawberries and blueberries. I’ll keep you posted on that.

I have to tell you that it sure is exciting eating the fruits of your labor. My husband has worked so hard and he loves it when he sees his efforts before us at the dinner table.

Do you have a garden and if so how’s it doing? I know different areas have different growing zones so some of you might not have even planted anything yet.

HAVE A FABULOUS DAY MY FRIENDS!
