My Garden, Part Two
Posted by admin under: Uncategorized .
As promised, here are some more pics of my organic garden project!
I had a bunch of leftover crud from when I made my wife’s flowerbeds, so it became my compost pile!
Some of my baby corn plants. Aren’t they adorable? :) I chose to plant them in 12 six-foot rows instead of fewer long rows. It took a bit more space, but I think they pollinated better. I mean, most sweet corn doesn’t get this high…
These are some of my baby honeydew melon plants. This is actually from my second planting. The first planting didn’t come up for some reason. Hopefully we have an easy September so I still get some melons!!
This is what my cute baby corn plants look like now. This photo is two weeks old, though. They’ve (finally) started to tassle. I was getting nervous…
I have no shortage of zucchini. I planted four seeds in this hill. Holy cow.
As you can see. I now have seven of these guys on my counter. Good thing the family campout is this weekend! I’ll foist some off on my aunts!
Here’s a look at my pumpkin and zucchini vines. They’re now spreading into the yard. My wife hits them with the lawnmower because she forgets they’re there.
More pics to come!
