This gardening season started off with a wet and cold spring which made it hard to get plants started. After replanting several times and fighting slugs with egg shells and midnight slug hunts, the garden is beginning to grow! This year we have the following vegetables planted:
- potatoes
- celery
- pole beans
- acorn squash
- patty pan squash
- delicata squash
- yellow crook neck
- cabbage
- lemon cucumbers
- burp less cucumbers
- onions
- egg plant
- tomatoes
- bell peppers
- Swiss chard
- kale
- lettuce
- carrots
- peas
- strawberries
- corn
It has been fun learning a bit more about the garden each year. This year I am using cottonseed meal, lime, dolomite, bone meal and fish emulsion to fertilize the garden. Even though it got off to a slow start this year it seems much healthier than last year. Anyone can garden so get dirty.
