Garden: Day 12

Store-bought tomatoes and jalapeno plants (2 each). Still need a cage for the 2nd tomato plant.

Fort Knox! of the Rabbit world.

Garden: Day 10

Almost everything has poked above ground. Several lettuce have popped up now. Almost all of the cucumber are now visible. Even a tiny squash has appeared. No sign of the carrots, yet. Don't be fooled by that bit of green in the Green Beans isle because I think it is a stray cucumber.

Garden: Day 5

We inspected how the watering was going. The noise of water running from the back faucet at 5am was not going to continue. We changed the water cycle to 9pm. While inspecting and testing the new sprinkler situation... Could that be lettuce? On day 5?

Garden: Day 4

The timer for watering kicks off at 5:30am. It makes a horrible whining noise in the house as it runs. Looks like I will be changing that to about 9pm instead. I like the timer product so far, here is a link.

Garden: Day 2

We bought more dirt. A total of 28 40lbs bags. We also bought two 40lbs bags of manure.

After putting down the compost, mixing with the top soil a bit, we laid down the manure and planted.

1st Box:
Row 1: Beans
Row 2: Cucumber
Row 3: Lettuce
Row 4: Spinach
Row 5: Beans

2nd Box:
Row 1: Pepper

Row 2: Carrot
Row 3: Squash

In the back corner of box 2 we will put a tomato plant.

You can also see my timer and soaker hoses that I put in place.

I hope every day for 15 minutes at 5am will work, but I will make adjustments. Oklahoma is in a severe drought at the moment.

Garden: Day 1

Spent the day purchasing top soil and compost. Yes, it is store-bought, I don't have a composter yet.

18 40lb bags of cheap ($1.33) top soil and 3 $4 2cuft compost bags.

We have planted nothing so far. Still planning that out.

Personally I am hopeful for a few herbs and some jalapeño.
