The Garden is Growing!!

Garden 6-15-11

Just wanted to give an update on how well the garden is growing.  All the vegetables are growing well!!! I did pull out all of the old watermelon plantings and planted radishes and carrots in its place.  The radishes have already sprouted and have been thinned to promote larger growing.  We are still waiting for the carrot tops to show themselves.

We have now started getting some produce from the garden for us to eat.  We got quiet a quite a few cherry tomatoes but then the plants ended up dying.  I have also started cutting mixed salad greens and lettuce for our salads.

In the next few weeks the green and yellow beans should be ready to start picking and then the yellow squash and zucchini.  I'm hoping the get enough for us to eat some now but also to freeze/can some for the winter.

Below are some close up shots of the veggies growing.  All pictures were taken on 6-13-11.
