Hi, I'm doing a little garden patch for veggies and flowers and such. Thought I'd learn more if I kept track of when I'm planting stuff. Maybe it will help someone else along. I know It'll help me!
Please forgive me in advance if I use the wrong terms, names, whatever. I'm starting from scratch here... Any advice/knowlege transfer is greatly appreciated.
In the picture you can see the entirety of my garden. It gets really good morning sun, but you can't tell now because it's raining ;)
SO, here's all the stuff to get us up to date.
On May 4 I put a squash plant, 4 tomato plants, and 2 eggplants in the ground. I also threw 2 really old packets of carrot seeds in a planter full of dirt. The old corn seeds I threw in a planter a few weeks prior have begun to sprout. I'm thinking I should have used the peat pots for the corn, I'm not relishing seperating each sprout and getting them to survive in the ground.
Today I planted 10 little peat pots each of Sweet Basil, Butternut Squash, Curly Lettuce, Beats, and Broccoli. I also threw some Parsley seeds in a pot. These are the 3 for $1 seed packets I've been picking up with Maggie while shopping. It'll be interesting to see how long it'll be before they are big enough to put in the ground. I've saved half the seeds to put in more pots later, or maybe to keep for next year.
