doesn’t look like much but i planted carrots, radishes, lettuce, arugula, chard, and spinach and mulched around the containers so i can grow flowers etc this time
tomorrow im going to mulch the area for raised beds 3 and 4 and start some plants inside. also get rid of those dead leaves and put a little compost down.
new beds are in, adding flower/herb beds around all of them now. starting the tomatoes, peppers, edamame, broccoli, and cucumbers but i might have killed them all by overwatering idk
finished the flower beds and im going to try to do a three sisters mound here though im convinced the corn will not grow
meanwhile the radishes are growing much slower in the new soil. thinned just now and got some cute ones
people are saying the hottest thing in gardening this year is the cucumber trellis. influencers are posting jaw-dropping sea-blue trellises ripped from the pages of gardeners supply to their socials. teens are going wild with “trellis envy”
built two new raised beds in my aunt’s community garden plot. I love building raised beds and i wont apologize for it
I know people who have 10 spider plants and that cabbage succulent are always like “im obsessed with my plants haha” but im actually obsessed with these plants
in the spring i convince myself that i have fucked up and they will never flower. then in a week they become huge and perfect. look at thid nastursium this was a seed
I like to let a few plants of eacht type bolt just to see what they turn into. here’s the arugula now
finally

review of my own pickled radishes from may: these taste too much like vinegar and they’re not crunchy. amateur work. do better
would be a real shame if i had to throw two of these away because i shattered the jar i was pickling them in :)
last batch of potatoes for now. so colorful

the cucumbers and about half the tomato plants have given up the ghost but the eggplant and okra are in their prime and shell beans are now producing
