9 Days Later

And 9 days later we have …..

IMG_1061aSprouts!

Here is a list of what we planted:

Emily -

Chives, Spinach, Watermelon, Cabbage, Long Peppers, Cilantro, Little Cucumbers, Buttercrunch Lettuce, Cantaloupe, Sugar Peas, Corn, and Beef Steak Tomatoes

Grace -

Garden Beans, Small Sugar Pumpkin, Roma Tomatoes, Beets, Iceberg Lettuce, Lemon Cucumber, Jalapenos, Carrots, Cherry Tomatoes, Double Yield Cucumbers, Radish, and Red Blush Onions

I forgot about and will probably plant Sweet Yellow Onions, Squash, Broccoli, and maybe Cauliflower.   I should also think about planting some Dill for the pickles I want to make.  I have Garlic, Rhubarb, Strawberries and Mint already growing. 

There's a nice picture in my mind of how I want my garden to be and I drew it on a paper so I’ll know where to plant everything.   I just need to get the garden space ready.  We’ll be putting topsoil on our garden this year.  I’m hoping to get a couple of nice hills for the carrots, beets, radishes and onions.

So I’m praying for sunny days and enough rain/snow right now so we don’t have a drought.  And maybe I should set up a rain barrel?

Thinking sunny and rainy thoughts until next time.

Thanks for listening ~
