The Harvest Continues:  More radishes and some Lettuce!

And looks like we'll have some tomatoes soon!

June 26, 2012 -- The weatherman is predicting a heatwave, so I went to the garden early in the morning, did some light weeding, watered everything well and harvested some more radishes and a NEW CROP --  GREEN LEAF LETTUCE!  We have the beginnings of a darn good salad, but we'll have to buy a few other things at the Farmers' Market.  But HEY!   It's all organic!

First Harvest!

The First Harvest!  I grew food!

June 21 -- I harvested 6 radishes.  Pretty impressive since they were grown from seeds planted 40 days ago!  But I am now a grower!  Mostly I relied on the soil and the rain --  that's my secret.

Transplants -- only way to rock.

I guess I learned my lesson about seeds!  We don't really have a way of starting seeds in our townhouse so we began our garden with seeds in mid-May.  I feel like a chump.  Got smart and bought some pepper and tomato seedlings in early June and NOW we got a garden.  The seeds are just starting to take off but the transplants are rockin' and rollin'  What a difference.  It's been really windy and lost most of my mulch, so the next major workday will be WEEDING and MULCHING.  We should have ready to eat garden fresh salads in no time.
