June – Busting Out All Over!

First week of June and the garden plants are bursting with growth!

2016-06-02 18.17.38

Not a lot of commentary this week – just pictures of how the individual sections/plants are doing. Is that a cucumber? Why yes, it is!

The ground cherries are sprouted too!

Romanesco Cauliflower is huge, but I still don’t see an actual vegetable… you can see the residual damage from the cabbage worms. Guess I need to cut off the dead leaves!

Zucchini – first pot is grown from seed – second pot is the plant purchased from Country Boys.

The full left bed with tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. Oh and the tomatillo. It’s HUGE! Happily, it isn’t very dense, so everything else is still getting sun.

The Japanese Eggplant is flowering! Isn’t it pretty?

In the Beginning

vegetables

Welcome! Follow along with me as I try gardening for the first time! My grandfather and mother are both amazing gardeners who could grow anything. Grapefruit, oranges, lemons, tomatoes, peppers, avocados, flowers, figs, mangoes, papayas – nothing seemed to wither on the vine.

Then there is me.  I’ve never had success with plants, but that is going to change this summer!  The picture above is what I see in my mind. I’m hoping that my kitchen counter will look like this. (OK, not the mushrooms, but you get the idea).

I intend to detail the journey here on a weekly basis. We’ll have to wait to see how my garden grows. Hope you stick around!
