Following the ups (hopefully) and downs of our first serious attempt at a vegetable garden.

good growth
more rain, sun, and pretty warm temps over the last few weeks. things are really starting to take off. no-one liked the radishes, so won't do those again next year even though they grew very well. the mesculun lettuce seems to get bitter very quickly, but the bibb lettuce has hung in there much better so will do more of that (in stages of planting!) next year. other people's beans look much much bigger, so wondering if they started much earlier. tomatoes doing well -lots of blooms. both eggplants died, one pepper has hung in. also planted a basil plant. i think my vine plants are too close. squash is in the lead and is already crowding out the beans. also planted some marigolds last saturday to try to get some more flowers in the garden.
