So far, still have green thumbs! My first totally organic garden is looking good!
I have three tomatoes, a pepper, an eggplant, one cuke, one zuch, three strawberries, four lettuces and as of today: two beans. That’s not counting the herbs: mint, rosemary, basil, dill, tyme and parsley. I have some sunflowers sprouting too.
The only thing I’m a bit worried about is my eggplant. The temperature has been wonky so I don’t see much fruit coming in. We’ll see.
I’m also helping out with the historical society garden. Mostly I’m pulling and watering there. That garden has a lot more variety, I’m not ready for that kind of commitment at home. I am ready for my share of the bounty though. I can’t keep up with the veggie/Berry demand caused by Spawnbeast. That kid hasn’t met a veggie he didn’t like.
Also part of my organic garden adventure: pest control and fertilizing. I think I’m doing okay. I hope I don’t have the nitrogen issue I had last year or the grub issue. I think I learned my lesson but again, we’ll see!
Stay tuned…
