Garden Update: Amazing Growth + New Green



It's hard to believe we completed building our raised garden beds a little over one week ago!  I've planted 4 of the 6 beds and I lovingly water and nurture my seeds everyday.

I wanted to share the exciting new things growing in my garden!  All the items I planted have a germination period of 7-10 days, but I've seen GREEN for several days now (after as little as 4 days on some!).  Here's some of the most impressive growth:


Beans (planted 2 weeks ago in a pot)


Peach tree (planted 1 week ago!)


Lettuce & Dill (planted 2 weeks ago)


Almost all of the veggies I planted in the beds have sprouted including these:

Corn
Tomatoes
Watermelon (new today!)
Lettuce
Radishes
Onions
Potatoes
Carrots

I am beyond impressed at how beautiful these things are and how quickly they're growing.  I think the raised beds were they way to go!

*I'd like to create a gardening slide show for inspiration to all of us.  PLEASE send your best home gardening photos and I'll post them when I have enough!  Send to eriry3@sbcglobal.net - looking forward to seeing your pics!*
