Garden: Day 0
Some time ago Aissa and I decided to someday have a vegetable garden in our bare backyard. So after a year of researching (procrastinating) we finally got the ball rolling by sowing seeds indoors in cell based green house kits (pictured). Here is a breakdown of what we’ll be growing.
A. Peppers
- Jalapenos
- Carnival Bell Peppers (red, yellow, green)
- Banana Peppers
B. Tomatoes
- Cherry
- Roma
C. All Sorts
- Cucumber
- Carrot
- Tomatillo
- Green Beans
- Red Onion
- Romaine
- Okra
- Bibb Lettuce
- Watermelon
- Peas
- Zucchini
- Radish
These plants go in the ground in a week! So today’s the day to get the yard ready.
We’ve chosen the square foot gardening method due to lack of space in our yard and the ease of setup. Elevating the garden means less tilling.
We intend to get the planters and irrigation setup this weekend and ready for next week’s planting. Stay tuned for updates of success or failures.
