@ niaouli - Thanks! I really want the strawberries but it's not likely going to happen. It's more of an additive for fun type of thing, and I have some big expenses I'm trying to figure out how to pay for right now.

@ PiercedPixie2 - Really? redface I come from a farmer family and haven't gardened in a really long time. My last garden I was really young and the only thing that came up were the snow peas lol Growing up my grandpa always had a garden in his back yard(divided by a fence), so I grew up going out with him and watching him water and him showing us little tricks. I wish I could remember more of it cry

And loaded! Picture update~ everything is doing extremely well(for the most part) and going nuts! We planted tomato plants, the carrots are all over the place and we've already got the squash/pea's fruiting!




Our red corn's fuzz is red even

Our tomato plants ~ don't ask me about the baskets, that's my friends deal. I'm not sure exactly what he's doing and when he's putting up the other ones

A squash bloom! The veggies on it are still fairly small, but hey it's the green gem's! I'm hoping they get bigger.

Snow Peas ~ I actually harvest a bit of them. Sadly not enough plants for what I expected to get, but enough to add to a fresh salad. They're rather sunbleached and it's not even summer yet! crying

The rest of our squash and cucumbers! I'm rather proud of them and anxiously waiting for them to bloom and such so I can omnomnom it!

and finally: Some romaine lettuce my friend decided to plant in a divider row randomly one day. I'm actually very shocked at how well it's growing.

I do have to say, I'm kind of confused at the sporadic growth of everything. I guess it was the over all quality of seeds we bought. I guess we just need to be sure to buy something better next time around. xp

We've had some thunderstorms, so now the majority of our corn is laying on it's side. gonk
