We have had a ton of rain and more to come here in the Midwest and even though I may be frustrated with the lack of outside playing we have been getting with the kids, I am loving the rain from my garden. I water it every day but I have to say that the garden does not get watered like it does when it rains.
I have herbs popping up and actually can use some finally and the garden, once it sprouted, is growing really fast now. One problem with the garden, well I totally forgot to write down and label what I planted where, oops. I know the first row is carrots and they are so small you can’t see them in the picture, but they finally sprouted yesterday. The next row is brussel sprouts, and then…?
I even bought extra topsy turvy’s this year so I will have tomatoes, cucumbers, and bell peppers in them. I did not label those pots either but they are ready to plant this weekend. I would do them today but I need a payday to buy the soil (frustrating economy).
Anyway, here are some pictures of what is generating in my backyard so far. Hopefully this weekend I can get the topsy turvy’s planted and see even bigger sprouts as we have lot’s more rain in our forecast!
The garden is small but I did not want to spend more than 1 day digging and planting as we don’t know how long we have in the house due to the forecloser and I did not want to do all that work for hug garden to let someone I don’t know benefit from it. We are just playing the waiting game on the house but are hoping to be here through the summer so I can use the fresh vegetables
