Gangbusters!
posted in Garden |The garden is growing like the proverbial gang-busters. It was only last week that we plunked the plants into the dirt, and now we have some definite growth here.
To begin with; I planted the zucchini in the tomato barrels this time, at Brookes’ request. They’ve already grown over the first ring in the wire basket thingie. I didn’t add anything to this dirt, but I did rip out all the weeds in March and then mulch it with grass clippings. Then, over in the regular beds, the artichoke is really liking the regular plucking and the tomatoes are growing like crazy. The spinach and lettuce seem to think I need to plant seeds, too. And the peas are going hopping mad!
