Gardening is on hold

Posted on June 7, 2006 at 01:43

as the rain keeps falling.  Things are going well.  I ended up ordering more brandywine tomato seeds since I believe that I killed my first batch.  So far, things that are growing well from seeds are:

green beans

spinach

peas

radishes

from seedlings bought:

roma tomatoes

jalapenos

white eggplant

romaine lettuce

zucchini

summer squash

cucumbers

The rain has prevented me from planting more.  Hopefully by the weekend it dries up enough so I can work in it.  Oh, and Zarek's gourds are growing very well also!  He's very proud of them.

Hi! Sounds like you'll have a ton of veggies to eat. What do you do w/ the hot peppers?

I so hope we can purchase a spot 'o land someplace where we can do the same thing. 2 more yrs in so. calif. desert before we can move. We are only leasing and have rocks for a lawn :P

My dd (Luthien at HSB) just started a snowflake bread cloth today. I am so glad she is wanting to try sewing and needlepoint. I had such a poor upbringing myself its hard for me to "get the ball rolling" when it comes to things I'm not good at myself.

take care,

Sure wish it would rain here - or better yet, SNOW. LOL, it's way too hot. Your garden sounds lovely!
