This little 12 week old guy fell to the ground a wee bit too early
So much fresh lettuce *o*
Grabbed a handful of greens from the backyard to go with a tasty McD cheeseburger : P
9 week old baby cucumber
Strawberries on strawberry plant from last year
10 week old Romaine lettuce. Earwigs have made them their home sweet home
There are several dozen 14 week old Pomodoro tomatoes already
Fewer than a dozen 15 week old Beefsteak tomatoes have appeared
Hmm. Pepper.
The peas are invading the carrot-beet plots. It's a weekly chore to detach some of the tendrils from the tall carrot leaves. On a side note: yes, sweet peas! Oh nom nom.
Five days ago the tomatoes looked like they were ready to push the beans off the "balcony."
Today, the tomatoes are succeeding in doing just that. I sense the beginning of a turf war.
The mesclun plot doesn't look too bad after moving several seedlings in between the broccoli and cauliflower plants.
It has been a few days since the sudden onset of the cold weather, and I'm glad to announce that everything is fine and dandy :D Cool crops are much more hardy than I thought.
The ten week old cauliflowers are looking rather stunted. Maybe it's due to the lack of sun in their shady territory.
One and only strawberry plant looking even better than before.
Poor lettuces are the only exception. The ones that were transplanted as small seedlings are fine, but it looks like these big guys have just encountered a twister.
A row of five day old mesclun seedlings. I should sow lightly next time.
Six week old giant napa. These grow fast!
Four week old bok choy and tatsoi.
Six week old lettuce.
One week old beans that remind me of my neglected Venus flytrap.
All too bushy five week old oregano.
Buttercrunch and Grand Rapid lettuce seedlings feeling overcrowded.
Almost good for the picking seven week old spinach and six week old tatsoi.
Home Depot had quite a nice selection of annuals.
Three week old lettuce.
One month old napa. It's so cute with its fat leaves.
One month old carrot.
One month old chubbie.
One week old peas.
Ten day old Buttercrunch and Grand Rapids lettuce seedlings.
: D
Supermarket pepper doing quite well on the windowsill.
Chubby Napa seedling.
A cozy 16 degrees Celsius inside the mini greenhouse. It was a scorching 30 last week with the surprise appearance of the blazing sun in early March.
The thyme is loving the temperature. They're a little leggy but getting bushier each day.
The overwintering mesclun seedlings are taking their lovely time to grow.
One month old spinach seedlings are also taking a while to mature.
Munchkin broccoli. What a cute name for a what I hope to be tiny, adorable broccoli.
Carrot peeping out of the soil. Hi, there!
After a rather slow start in February, the green tips are now growing like mad :D
Repotted globe basil for Michelle. The sweet basil seedlings are one month old.
Thyme for Bunbun, approximately one month old. I read somewhere that this herb "repels" rabbits, so I'm left wondering if Bunbun is an anomaly because he loooves this stuff. He will beg for hours just to get one sprig.
Sweet pepper for myself. Also one month old. Will this seed from a store-bought pepper grow and bear fruit? We'll find out soon enough!
Two overwintering mesclun seedlings have popped out of the soil. It's been above 0 during the day lately and an average of +5 behind the screen doors, so it's no wonder plants are starting to appear.
Two week old Bloomsdale spinach *raises fist* I will conquer you this time!
