New lettuce is sprouting
The old lettuce wasn’t growing, so we’re trying some new lettuce seeds, and they are thriving.
Garden
More flowers for the deck
The tomato sprouts keep on growing and we got some new flowers for the deck.
Starting new tomatoes and lettuce
We’ve started three varieties of tomatoes (Italian Paste, Tiny Tim, and Red Robin) as well as some lettuce in our window.
Summer drought and pilfered beets
This summer has been very dry, to the point of stage 3 water restrictions being imposed in the city; so we haven’t planted any more during this season. Â Our garden also experienced a bit of thievery when someone came in and stole most of our beets. Â They did leave a few behind, though.
Lotsa lettuce
We returned from our trip to find our garden with an abundance of lettuce along with our new poppies and further growth in our potato and strawberry plants
Summer heat brings a bounty of strawberries
Checking our garden today brought a pail full of strawberries. Â And it looks like there’s more on the way.
Spring growth
Spinach has started growing in our garden, as well as potatoes. Â We also planted some beets; hopefully they will do well. Â It looks like we’re going to have lots of strawberries this year.
New year, new sprouts
We started a bunch more cherry tomatoes inside this year, starting them from seed. Â We also have parsley, cilantro, spinach, garlic and potatoes on the go. Â Our strawberries are coming back again this year as well.
