My Growing Garden!

I never cease to be amazed!

Remember this-

Now it is this---

I've learned that when my sister says the garden should be in full sun, she's right. Also that when she says you should water it EVERY DAY, you shouldn't forget for the first two days after it is planted. Thus, my row on the far right closest to the fence is too shaded. It doesn't seem to be bothering my zucchini any, but I don't think my little spinach plants are going to make it.

Also, I think the not watering killed all the carrot seeds so the two empty spaces you see were supposed to be carrots. We were going to replant, and heck, we still might, but Amber and I just haven't had the time.

Most of my plants are flowering, and I'm pretty sure that's a good sign-

Tomato flowers-

Bell Pepper flowers-

Zucchini flower-


And the MOST AMAZING THING I just noticed today while watering-

Look at the tiny little vine on this Cucumber plant-

Now look at the close up-

How does it know how to do that? And HOW DID IT DO IT? I wish I knew how long it took to wrap itself around the string, and how long it has been there.

Oh How I love my garden!

(PS- all my herbs are thriving and I've used all but the cilantro in my cooking!)
