Lettuce

 
My leaf lettuce is coming on, good and the one darker plant with them, is probably marigolds, that I scattered the same day I planted the lettuce.  I hope the marigolds make good plants this year, so the bugs will go somewhere else.

Ginger

 
This is my ginger plants, that I rooted back in the winter, and now they are really tall.  It looks like there will be a decent harvest of fresh ginger in a few months.

Mango

 
Here is my mango tree, that I sprouted from seed back a few months ago.  It stayed in the house all winter, and has started to put on new leaves, since I fed it last week.  Am interested to see what this year's growth will yield.



Potatoes

I guess you could say, I'm proud of my potato plants, as they seem to be growing real well after the last rain.

Beets

Beet plants that came up after the rain a few days ago.

Leaf Lettuce


The tiny 2 leaf plants, are the leaf lettuce just coming up, since the rain a few days ago.

Onion Slips

Bought one bunch of onion slips, which are priced very high, this year.  They are planted and I hope the animals in the area, stay out of my garden, so I don't have to replant them, after they dig them up using it for a potty..........trying to deter them from here......

Radishes

Here are new radish plants, just come up in my raised bed garden.  I'll plant some more seeds in a couple of weeks to come up for later use.

Cool Idea

Melon and Squash Cradle, , large
What a great way to keep them off the ground............. wow!  :)

Supports

Pro Series Folding Plant Supports, , large
This type of support folds up when it's time for storage.  Much easier to handle that the stiff tomato cages.

Planting

Onions, potatoes, lettuce, beets and radishes, are planted as of today...........Had to spray the ground outside of it, because I noticed cats and etc. have been going to the bathroom in it.........so, I'll have to keep a good watch on it, to keep them out.........will be spraying repellent ever so often.
I have plenty of other seeds to plant but, will need to wait until frost season goes away............and so the fun begins.........can't wait to see how well it does this year.......got some extra potting soil worked in to help with the soil texture.  Last year, it was too sandy and bombed out..........lost most of my plants............we will see how it goes.
Had a good rain this week, so maybe the potatoes will take to sprouting and make good harvest.  Love fresh veggies out of a garden..........home grown is the best!
