This Year's Garden

I put almost everything in as seed this year (got busy and forgot to start them early in the trays). It has been warm enough that almost all of it has germinated within 7 days! Yippee!


Here is my list and then some pics from this morning.
Bush beans (Big Kahuna, Gold Mine, Eureka), Golden Egg squash, spinach, potatoes, zucchini, blueberries, broccoli, brussel sprouts, watermelon, cucumbers, orange bell peppers, seedless tomatoes, Big Daddy tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and Three Sisters Planting with pole beans (Purple King, Kentucky Blue), Silver Queen corn and pumpkins.


Bush beans

 Zucchini

 Three Sisters planting, corn and a bean sprouting

 Broccoli

 Blueberries

I planted sweet potatoes and some bok choi seeds in line with the shed, hoping the groundhog will fill himself with them and leave the rest of the garden alone.

The sweet potatoes
 about 20 feet from the groundhog home.

I am looking forward to a yummy harvest this year.
