We got enough of a dry period last week to finally get the two vegetable gardens planted! Hooray! In the lower garden (near the back fence), we planted corn, watermelon, and winter squash. In the upper garden (near the kitchen side of the house), we planted tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, summer squash, beans, eggplant, and sunflowers. No sooner than we finished, here came a rain shower, saving us from having to water!
Oh, YUM~~~~everything you planted, I LOVE!!! :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had the good weather to plant, and then the free water! hahaha
I keep hoping for some of that here ya know!! :)
It's been awfully wet this spring here, also. I'm a little worried about the farmers, they can't get their crops in, they're way, way behind!
ReplyDeleteOur garden should go in sometime this week. We've got lots of tomatoes, (for salsa to can!) and most of the same things you do, except for eggplant.
I hope it does well for you!

Great! It sure will be tasty once it grows and produces.
ReplyDeleteSame thing here Donna...the rain was great..a nice steady rainfall all day and night...the tomatoes are growing well and imagine the seeds will be shooting up soon.
ReplyDeletea beautidul sunny day today..took the grandsons to the woods and franklin creek...life doesn't get any better than this!
If the weather cooperates, you will have a lovely garden to enjoy now and far into the winter, too!
ReplyDeleteDonna, I just read your entry re your knee surgery. I will keep you in my thoughts and pray that all will go well for you this time. I agree it is major surgery but hope you come out the other end with pain free days and a changed life. It must be so hard for you to keep functioning with such pain. All the best.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs XXXXOOOO
We have ours planted too, and had to cover up the tomato plants last night because of the possiblity of frost. And yep, it frosted!

Oh I cant wait to see pictures of your sunflowers!!! The events of the past month have derailed my planting schedule. I hope I can get some sunflowers planted soon and get the rest of my plants in the ground.
ReplyDeleteI don't plant a vegetable garden but I do plant flowers and will be doing so this weekend. Sounds like you will have a bountiful harvest!
