I really need to relax when it comes to watering my plants. Luckily, less than a dozen out of a hundred have bursted.
Happy New Year!

Despite the mess...
...they're growing! Look at it swell up, day 35
Got to start trimming this basil plant again into a round ball
Second generation pea seedling
Since the Venus fly trap isn't doing its job, I have to resort to sticky tape to get rid of the insects in my bedroom
Bunbun munches on some fresh lettuce in his new tube hut
Aside from the Tiny Tims, nothing else in the garden has been screaming EAT ME!
Eggplant looking rather dull and unhappy
Collected only 7 bean seeds. Hope at least one will sprout
Cherry Belle Radish. A few holes, nothing major unlike the poor neighbouring cauliflower and broccoli plants
Some sort of carrot, perhaps one of the "Nantes." I really need to go on a weed rampage soon with all the wild plants and grass everywhere
Laxton's Progress Peas. Got the seeds from a shady dollar store, so my fingers are crossed that it won't grow into a mutant plant
Hmm, looks more like a Rosa Bianca than a Black Beauty. How strange
Since the gardening season is coming to an end, there are only two things on the to-do list: cleaning up and scrapbooking. Been feeling extra lazy recently, so the garden looks like a giant dump infested with all sorts of bugs. On the other hand, the scrapbook is coming in quite nicely.
Seed packets in magnetic pages for easy access
Leaf pressing: slip several leaves in between thick paper towels, place paper towels in pages of heavy book, wait for two weeks before removing them
Stick pressings in scrapbook and voila! What a great way to "mummify" your plants
I may have overplanted them
Veggiebasket: lettuce, strawberries, tomatoes, beans and zucchini. Talk about a productive harvest : ) Got the handy wicker basket from my cousin's garage sale
Toperbasket. For some odd reason only one out of several dozen chili peppers turned red. Hope the ones I left alone will ripen soon
