I feel like I haven’t posted about the garden like at all so I just wanted to give a little update
There’s a few things I’m not so sure about, but I’m taking this year as a learning year with where I am and what kind of conditions I have, so I’m trying to not take any losses or anything too hard. That said though, I don’t want to jinx it, but for the most part it’s doing pretty well!
I decided to go with plant starts for the most part this year and only ended up doing a few things from seed, mostly as a combination of being busy and somewhat lazy
I’ve gotten several cherry tomatoes so far, and there are many more on the plants that are still growing/ripening, as well as a bunch of green romas that I’m hoping will start ripening soon
Plus a couple of jalapeños and one little bell pepper, all still fairly small and growing, but I’ve never had good luck with peppers so I was pleased they were fruiting at all
Nothing else is fruiting yet (which I wasn’t expecting it to) but my cucumber is covered in flowers rn so I am hopeful
I’ve got a fair number of herbs, most of which are doing pretty well (except for two chamomile starts I got at the farmer’s market, which I think might die tbh). I have 4 kinds of mint (well, 3+catnip if you like semantics) all in one long container in the hopes that they’ll keep each other relatively in check, and it’s actually working fairly well so far
Also the first of the marigold seeds I planted finally flowered! There’s quite a few of them that have sprouted pretty well and I think might bloom soon, but I was delighted to see the first one today
