Garden Work

Today, I planted most of my garden. I have 8 cucumbers (4 pickling) and 1 pumpkin in the front bed. I put a new Spruce tree seedling out front to replace the old one. It didn't look good after being buried in snow all winter.

I put 4 Early Girl tomato plants and 4 Sweet Million tomato plants (cherry size fruits) in the back with the strawberries. Also in the back are 8 corn plants that I planted from seed about 2 weeks ago and a Sugar Baby Watermelon. I still have 1 corn plant and 9 green bean plants in cups (from 2 weeks ago as well). I used my 4 planters for 4 more Sweet Million plants. The two geraniums (original and transplant) are blooming downstairs. The low this morning was 30 F, so my patience was rewarded this year. The front yard thermo reported a min of 28.6 F.

I'm not overly impressed with the Lawn Patch, but it is early. I should know this week if it will work or not.
