April 11-14, 2009

so... we've planted corn, green beans, cucumber, spaghetti squash, green peppers, radishes, peas, snow peas, carrots, serrano chilis

We learned that about 90% of the stuff that we planted in the pods is in the compost. They just didn't make it. The best way is to put them right in the ground.

We went to "Star Nursery" for the first time the other day. I don't know why we didn't go there before, it was great!!! Over the past few weeks we had developed quite a bug problem. Following the recommendation of my friend Heidi Buttars, we bought some lady bugs and already there is a noticable difference. We also got some dirt to put a new layer on the compost pile. It's filling up! We also got a few more strawberry plants because they are so pretty and it's fun to actually have something producing food!


At the very back is red onions, then corn, then cucumbers (can't see them) then the tomatoes.
