So Paul and I spent yesterday planting in the garden. We planted 2 rows of beans, and left room so we could plant 2 more rows in 2 or 3 weeks, so we can stretch out the harvest time of the beans. We planted 2 different kinds of beans so we will see what we get. We also planted the carrots that we had started from seed a few weeks ago, in pots, along with the squash and zucchini, and the 2 pumpkins that Paul started. We will plant some more stuff in the next few weeks, but we will have to get some more seed first, and then we will probably plant some corn, and Corrine wants some snap peas. But the garden has been officially started, which is great, since it has been raining a little today, and should continue for the next few days, so that will be a good soaking of the garden.
So I mentioned that last weekend, I planted some seeds. These were all seeds that we had left over from last year, and so I wasn’t really sure if all the seeds would take off, so I probably plated more then I needed to but its better to have more then less. So this past week, I have been keeping an eye on the seeds and there are tons of plants coming up. the carrots and tomatoes are going crazy. But I really just threw a handful in instead planting individual seeds, so it didn’t surprise me, but I guess it does surprise me how many seeds I must have put in, and how a lot of them are coming up too. So I took the tomatoes and carrots that were growing like crazy, and separated them into smaller pots. I also took the peas and beans and put them also into new pots, so we will have a lot of plants, hopefully they will produce a lot of veggies.
