Seeds

I have managed to do a garden every year since we've been in this house... in a different spot every year..I wish I had pictures of this to show you..

First year, o had this great Idea to do it on the hill in my backyard, made it look like stairs, dug it all out. I even twisted my knee cap (digging with flip flops, oops). I started it to late tho and nothing really took.

Second year we moved it to the bottom of the yard in a far corner, used pallets to block the dogs out, but lo and behold not enough sun, didnt get very much that year either.

Third year I moved everything to the front. Made some garden boxes , planted everything on time and got, I swear, THOUSANDS of cherry tomatoes. They just kept coming. Now my confidence is booming.

Fourth year, I left it where it was. I decided let's do pumpkins! Because I mean obviously, right? Anyways they kind of took over everything. They legit spread everywhere... no sun for anything else! But I got 4 beautiful sized pumpkins that me and my sister carved for halloween.

Fifth year, last year, Andrew decided he wanted our front yard to look nicer so we built these huge beautiful raised garden boxes.. my garden was a HUGE success... I had tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, peppers, I even tried cabbage and cantaloupe! I added strawberries, raspberries and grapes, as well as rhubarb, just some stuff that grows back every year.

This year, Andrew read somewhere that you can start seeds in a damp paper towel in a plastic baggy and then just plant the rooted ones.. so that's what I did and in just 3 days most have sprouted just a few didn't.

So I planted the few that already sprouted and will leave the rest a few more days and can just plant as they sprout.

I'm excited for this years garden.
