Week 3, 2012

The plants have grown SO much over the past week!

Here is the link to the second week's pictures.

First bed: We've had to put Sevin on the plants because we found some kind of insect on the lettuce. Better to be safe than sorry!

Second bed: so much bigger than week 2. No bugs in this bed yet! Blooms are just starting to form in the middle of the squash plants. Hopefully they will come up sometime in the next few days!

Third bed: not many changes to these plants yet. Both tomato plants have plenty of blooms on them now.

Fourth bed: I forgot to say in Week 2's blog that the plants that are in the cage with the strawberries are sage plants. I (K) read that squirrels don't like sage so maybe that will help along with the sticks and the cage. So far, there have been no other intruders! Lots of blooms and baby strawberries growing though

Fifth bed: these 3 tomato plants have plenty of blooms on them also. I haven't had to water them much because the new soil is keeping pretty moist from the occasional rain showers.

Stay tuned for more updates!
