First off, I have got the front yard pictures. Our place faces north so the only sun the yard gets is on the north edge. Here’s a pic of everything arranged:
In the Camrose plot today I put up 3 more short fences with chicken wire to ‘remind’ the dogs to stay out of the beds, The carrot patch keeps getting trampled, so maybe this will help. I also used stakes and flagging tape so Davin can see where the asparagus patch is and where he’s not supposed to walk through. Here’s a pic:
Here is the lone green zucchini seedling from 24 seeds planted between both gardens. Talk about a miserable germination rate! I scratched up the seed coats of some white zucchini and planted the seeds to either side of this seedling in hopes we get at least 1 more plant from it!
Some very happy plants in the squash patch. All the squash are really taking hold now and showing plenty of vigour – even the small sugar pumpkin plant I thought would die is doing great now.
Here is something curious. This tiny tim tomato used to be doing well, now it seems to be dying. I saw a lot of spiders on it, so am not sure what happened. Here is a shot of the one next to it that couldn’t be healthier….curiouser and curiouser…
All in all, 95% of the tomatoes are doing great as is mostly everything else, though the parsnips haven’t come up yet, and it’s hard to tell in the lettuce patch what is a weed or lettuce/spinach sprout…
The beginnings of a small Japenese tomato ring. It’s just missing the mesh now.
Lemon Boy Tomato – Look at the nice thick stem!
Sunflower seedlings
