GARDEN PROGRESS 05/12/2010
 Here is a picture of my idea of how to use up these metal posts. Originally, they were frames for the flooring in my sheds. We decided to go another way. I plan on putting another cross-beam to the posts. That way, it will be real sturdy, and I can tie the tomatoes to the cross-beams with twine. I always like to re-purpose things. It is just how my brain works...what can I say...  This is the 'greens' bed. Kale, arugula, Swiss chard, Romaine lettuce, and some micro greens. I can hardly wait for my salads.  Four kinds of carrots and three kinds of radish...still a little slow in the carrot department. But you can see the little hairy shoots in the fore ground.  See the bloom in the center? Promises of those big, beefy tomatoes. Sandwiches, salads, sauces, catsup, salsa, the best spaghetti sauce, ever! I can already taste them...what a lucky girl I am!  Here are some pictures of some new seedlings I started in some cups. More beefsteaks and some yellow tomatoes.  These are those Cripps Pink apples I like so much. I found some sprouted seeds in the apple. So you know me, in the pot they go.  I know this is out-of-focus, but I just wanted to mention that I am hoping to get a few Granny Smith apples off of this tree this year. I just wanted to show the blooms, but it seems the leaves got in the way. At least that is what is in focus. See...a few days without my camera, and I need to be re-trained. Not really. Just an old Pollock joke, come to life. I am allowed...I am Polish. Maybe even royalty...but that is just a rumor. It was never proven. A girl can hope, right? ************************************** CommentsLeave a Reply | ArchivesAugust 2010 CategoriesAll |
