Garden Update IV: 100g Bag!


Yesterday, I had a strong craving, one that I couldn't satisfy with any old mass produced, chemical laden product of a southern state. No, I needed me some U of C No. 1 green, and I needed it BAD. So, I grabbed a baggie, hopped on my ride, and headed down to the patch...
It was nice to collect some of our own edible greenery (had wilted spinach with some chops tonight).

On Saturday, Tammy and I placed some bamboo poles and twine around our patty pan squash and pole beans, in anticipation of training them as they climb.

Below are a couple of photos of the garden in general. As can be seen, some of the more experienced veteran gardeners are further ahead, but we're doing okay.

I was also glad to find out that two seedlings we had almost given up on, a pumpkin and squash plant, are actually showing new growth. The squash, seen below left, is further ahead, but still it will be iffy to mature in time. Below right are the edamame beans with neighbouring marigolds.
