The Garden is growing...

I'm not sure what we did right but our garden seems to be growing wonderfully. From the pictures you can tell we don't have the best soil. The landscapers brought us 5 yards of fill dirt and our finances were low so we didn't even mix any of the good stuff in with it. We'll add some good dirt for fall planting. Alex did give it a good spray of Miracle grow and that's all...
The landscaper very nicely placed a drip line every 10 inches in the garden and Alex attached a soaker line to them. The garden system goes off every morning automatically. Love it!

Here are the 2 rows of Carrots sprouting up. Can't wait to have yuumy fresh sweet carrots! These are also the dogs favorite treats :)


Green Beans - waiting for these to get a little taller to start winding up the lattice.


Technically not in the garden but couldn't resist showing you the tiny green buds from the Orange Tree, this is the start of a Yummy fresh orange!


Pumpkins. Will we have one big enough to carve?


Shallots. We only had 3 poke through but I love these in salads and cooking sooo much!


Cucumbers - Wow tons grew! Waiting for them to grow a little more so we can wind them up the lattice.


Lettuce - We planted 2 varieties. They are both growing good. Fresh lettuce from the garden - is your mouth watering yet?


Tomato's - 2 pictures here. We have 4 tomato plants. One of them is HUGE! The other one has a beautiful tomato growing - actually between all 4 plants I think we have a total of about 6 juicy yummy tomato's so far- BLT's anyone????



Pepper's - Well the pepper plants seem to be lacking a little in growth but they do have buds and the one pepper is still holding it's own.


Sunflowers - growing like weeds!


Watermelons - A lot of the seeds sprouted... Now lets see if we get yummy watermelons to eat! Hey, how did that sunflower seed get planted in a watermelon mound? Silly!
