The 2015 Plan

May 9 2015

Total garden space - 12.5 x 12.5




We started with a list of the following:  Garlic, basil, green beans, sunflowers, cilantro, tomato, carrots, squash and zucchini, lettuce and cucumbers (for pickles) and potatoes.





May 23 - 24 2015 We had to narrow the list down a bit -  lettuce, radish, carrots, tomatoes 4- varieties, green beans, sunflowers, swiss chard, cucumbers (2 varieties), summer squash, zucchini, basil (2 varieties).

We planted most everything this weekend.  With the cool temps and rain nearly everyday, it was difficult to get anything in any earlier.


Initially, I used a fertilizer to when I planted, but quickly learned that the product I was using, although label organic, was not fertilized.  Since the soil was in such good condition, and I mulched with grass clippings, I really had no need to feed my plants the rest of the summer.
