In the meanwhile, my husband bought me a organic gardening book. I've been engrossed looking at all of the pictures. Everything is broken down in simple terms and to the point. I've become enlightened on gardening ideas, techniques and planning I knew nothing about. I'm starting to feel more confident. I just might be able to pull this thing off.
My mother had some friendly advice, don't put the jalapeno/hot pepper plants next to the tomatoes...the tomatoes can become spicy because of the pollinating bees. Can anyone relate? In any case, I'll be separating the hot plants from the tomatoes. lol
I took a few shots of my seedling garden ...
Time to start transplanting, it came sooner than I thought it would.
Looking refreshed after an evening spritz.I bought some soil from Lowe's a couple of days ago and I was dissapointed. It was an all natural soil, but it did not advertise it was organic. Since my goal is to have an organic garden, it's important I get the right soil. However, for the price, my husband was happy with the amount we recieved. (3 cu. ft.) And, like I mentioned before, at this stage it's all experimental. Now is the time to play around with different soils and techniques. The soil wasn't like the Miracle Grow soil with time release abilities. Although, I did notice that Miracle Grow makes an organic soil. It has a time relase ability too ... is it really organic if it does? Curious.
Sprouted Wishes,
