Start of the Gardening Adventure


30 August Update - Added 1 bag of peat moss, 1/2 bag of cow manure, 1 bag blood and bone meal mix to beds.  Hoe'd the whole thing together.  Not sure if tilling was the best idea.  Pretty sold on the no-till concept, but what to know more before I start doing "weird stuff" in a community garden.  I need to be parient.

Planted lots of stuff.  Plot map to follow.

The seedlings at home have nearly all sprouted.  I am a bit disappointed with some, but overall great success.  Last night's heavy winds and rains have damaged the trays.  Moved all four trays to a lower shelf which is more sheltered from the wind.

22 August - Visited the Frog Alley community garden for the summer clean up.  Committed to care for two 4 x 8 beds.  This is equivalent to 4

- Need to wear clothes that don't show dirt.
