anyone out there trying to garden this summer? if so, what are ya growing?
i'm going to try, i really don't know anything about gardening though. i have a big yard, so it would be criminal not to at least try!
i usually buy some seeds for a vegetable, then try and find blogs that have tips on growing it...
there is this story from years ago, about my mom, i guess she planted some tomatoes, and a weed started growing there. she wouldn't let my dad pull the weed, b/c she thought it was a tomato plant. i've heard this story being told several times, kinda making fun of my mom, but i think it's totally unfair! she didn't have google, or even a library she could look up any information! her mom didn't grow tomatoes... so how would she know?
anyway.
i've also started a compost (w/o worms) & it's working! worms end up in there anyway, thanks to my niece & nephew. they ome over and pick up big rocks & pull worms out of the ground & toss them in there for me :)
i guess this is my "before" picture of our back garden area. we'll see what happens in a few months!
also, my naughty kitties ate about 6 of my tomato seedlings. they sit right next to them in the sun, and i guess they must have gotten bored one day & decided to eat a few of them?

I hope to grow brussel sprouts, kale, cherry tomatoes, and some herbs.

ReplyDeletehi there, i'm a regular snooper of your blog. i rarely comment and when i actually work up the courage to speak my mind i usually talk shit about your husband (i'm sorry, but it's just too easy! lol) ...but OMFG, i take it all back..he looks hella ripped! i hope you guys can accept my apology and not beat me up. hehe.
ReplyDeleteI heard he is much ripper in person. But really how do we know those things are even real....
