Here is my garden so far...

In the bed below I have planted cucumbers, carrots, radishes and brussell sprouts.

The middle bed which is below also has a row of lettuce and then a row of radishes and is alternating for the length of the bed.

The last of my three beds is just potatoes. I am going to plant 1 or 2 pumpkins and tomatoes when I find something to do with the extra dirt while I wait on my potatoes to sprout.

Happy Gardening!!!

I got a row of peas in today. I also cleaned off a shelf with wheels that was hidden in the back of the shed and I am using that for my starters. I can wheel it in to the garage at night, then under the back porch during the day until it they are hardened off. I just have to enclose the bottom shelf somehow if I want to use it. Otherwise it will just turn in to a rolling duck treat cart :D

momofdrew: the wood he used to make the grids on the beds was the thin wood found in the trim section at home depot. Sorry I don't know the exact name....neither does he and he bought it! :rolleyes:

That is a good, easy way to harden off the plants.

I am new to gardening and I am having some successes and some failures. I didnt know that mustard greens were cool weather plants and mine are doing poor. I am about to take them up. I also have some green onions doing very poorly. Gonna pull them up and stick some okra in the ground.

Blue tater plants are beautiful, watermelons (the red ones anyway) have sprouted, banana peppers are producing, yellow squash plants are thinking about feeding me. I am learning a lot from yall and most important of all, I am having a good time.

Mjd :cool:

Hey guys! Just checking in. We've had some nice weather the past couple of days , so I've been busy outside. Got some netting up for my peas , put the last couple of rows of radishes in and FINALLY got my tomatoes outside for some real sun! Hope everyone is well and your gardens are doing good!

I almost forgot - trimmed the grapevines too!

The weather is going to be very good for planting this week. Hopefully everything will grow quick.

Greg came home early from work tonight and tilled up the garden area again so I guess we're hoping that even though it's supposed to rain and be chilly this weekend we'll plant some garden. I'm going to start hardening my tomatoes next week.
