I did put some in the ground. The ones in the pot are just a trial. An update on the garden. I now have 3 cucumber sprouts that are doing well. One is on its way to getting a second set of leaves. I have 2-3 carrot sprouts. All 4 corn sprouts in the pot are doing well. One is well over an inch...

Here are some pictures of my food garden: Cucumber Carrot Corn

Now that they are in the soil, they are taking off like rockets. They are about .5 inches tall right now and I have 3 sprouts. So how many ears of corn will a single stalk produce?

This is my first year doing it. Its doing great with the cucumber seeds. I have another seedling ready to get planted tomorrow. The corn is developing some kind of mold or something though, so I'm not going to pre-sprout anymore corn.

Yea, but at least it is spring weather. I was so ready for winter to be over. I'm ready for warm weather.

I have some corn, carrots, and a single cucumber sprout planted now. The cucumber seedling is about 1.5 inches tall now. The corn sprouts and just breaking the surface and the carrot sprout is as well. I'm so excited.

Yea, I'm really nervous since last year I lost everything! Everything died and I got nothing out of my garden. This year I have easier access to it and there are fewer bees which means I can go out every day to check on my plants. So far my plants are doing well outside. I'm not taking them...

Well I did end put putting the seedling outside and its doing well so far. One leaf had started to curl because it needed to be watered, but it rained so it got a nice drink. I planted some of my corn sprouts and my carrot sprouts and today I looked and two corn sprouts broke the surface and so...

Well I have one really good, strong seedling. It's about 1-1.5 inches tall. The leaves have separated from each other. I have realized that the container I have it growing in is too shallow so I will be moving it to a bigger pot. When should I move it outside? Today we have a high of 66 and...

I have two really good cucumber sprouts that I planted today. Two more are on their way to being planted. The other two seeds have not sprouted. As for my corn, a few are starting to show little tails, so I've got 4 out of those 6 sprouting. The carrot seeds are not showing too much promise...

I pulled two sprouts from the baggy I'm sprouting them in. They were coming out of the little seed shell, so I planted them. The little leaves have not separated from each other. Two more sprouts are on their way. Might plant them tomorrow. The other two seeds have yet to sprout.

Well I haven't had a chance to plant them yet. I will probably do it tonight, but I took a look at my little sprouts and they are doing great! The main root is developing little off shoot roots! Two of the sprouts are doing this, the other two are not there yet. So that is 4 out of 6 seeds...

Yay! Little baby plants!

So no Siamese? This is a great section!

Not sure if I posted this or not. I don't remember if I did. I am in Richmond, Va. Anyone else from around here or close to it?

Aw, but I was hoping to plant some tabby cats this year. Maybe they won't do well in my zone. :D

Do I need to make sure the little tails are facing down? I will be planting them in pots.

Well if I grow soybeans, I can then just plant those soybeans and have a little soybean operation going. :) I just looked online and it takes 125g of soybeans to make 1 liter of soymilk.

I wish, but I don't know where to find them. I've looked at the garden store but I didn't see anything. I wish I could grow my own soybeans. That way I could make my own soymilk, which I drink a ton of.

Not sure. This is my first try with cucumbers.
