gardens


The first garden we planted is to the right and seems to be growing like it should. We had our first lettuce for lunch today. The cucumbers are flowering and the tomatos are about 4' high. We used my home made compost and the top soil from where the garden is planted. The garden to the left is our square foot garden with our high tech soil. The soil is 1/3 vermiculite, 1/3 peat moss, 1/6 compost, 1/6 cow manurer. We planted the garden about two weeks ago and the peas are about 6" high and everything else has come up. The cat thought the garden made a great cat box so KT and I built a chicken wire cage to keep them out.
