July 19

Tomato plants are really taking off. The ones we started from seeds I separated and can go on their own now.
The bell pepper plants have their first baby peppers.

First Zucchini and green bean picked! I also picked a couple peas this week but didn't photo.

All the plants are really taking off. The lettuce and green onions are ready to harvest.
Green beans will be ready probably in a week and there are a lot of sugar snap peas!

We have our first veggies! 3 pea pods, 1 zucchini, and a few jalapeno peppers. So excited!

Upper garden: herbs, peppers, tomatoes and the never ending supply of rhubarb - view after 3rd time picking it
For awhile, the peppers weren't growing so I supplemented 3 from the nursery. The others are still slowly coming along.
I also bought a basil and oregano plant and of course the week after I did this they took off. I caged the tomatoes this weekend.

The first flower has finally bloomed. I read that you are supposed to start flowers inside in Feb.
Oops! No wonder ours aren't there yet! Good to know for next year.

June 18

We decided to plant the rest of our indoor growing plants: the herbs, peppers, tomatoes and flowers.
Their growth has stalled so we're hoping the outdoor soil and sun will help.
None of the perennial flowers took off, but a lot of the annuals did. Enough to fill our front 3 areas.
I cheated  a little and bought 3 cilantro plants. Also Mom & Ron gave me mint and chives.
The rhubarb continues to go crazy.

Not sure what week we are on now. We planted the beans, squash, and cucumbers into the garden before
we went on vacation for a week. Not the best idea. They need a little more TLC than that since they were
all dead by the time we got back. The weekend after we got back we started over and planted the garden with fresh seeds.
Within a week most of the seeds had sprouted!

Week 6 (April 28)
Had to support our bean stalks because they were getting so tall. The squash is vining everywhere.
I thinned the flowers a bunch. We also finally got our outdoor garden ready and planted the asparagus.
The rhubarb from the garden last year has come up and is rapidly growing.

Week 4
Lots more growth this week! All of the flowers have finally popped up.
Squash is starting to vine. Cucumbers need to be replanted soon.

Week 3
The peppers have popped up this week and everything else continues to grow.
The bean stalks are so tall I think Jack will be coming to climb them soon.
More of the flowers are coming in.

Week 2
This week I removed the covers from both flats and removed them from the warm floor.
The green beans sprouted, went nuts and had to be replanted. I am already seeing little bean shaped pieces on them.
The cucumbers popped up too but not as quick. Almost all of the vegetables are up minus the peppers.
Only one of those has sprouted. The flowers are slower growing but were still thinned.

Week 1
This is the growth after one week.
The squash has already out grown the little holders, so I had to transplant them into bigger containers.

Planting
We planted2 containers worth of seeds. One with veggies/herbs and another with flowers.
