#marigoldflower

The big mint and basil plant, mint is invasive once it's established. I am okay with that where it is at because of the concrete divider. It does not get to go past that.

Big pot of one side. There's the bell pepper Wich is starting to get a few bells, salvia and Marigolds and there's a struggling squash but we are not expecting anything from it.

Rows1-3

Row 1= round zuchinni

Row2 = peas a mystery squash and more peas

Row3 = kabocha squash, Armanian cucumbers and another myster squashes.

Rows 3-5

Row3 = kabocha squash, Armanian cucumbers and another myster squashes.

Row 4= kales, cabbage and chard

Row 5= broccoli and cabbages

Rows 5-6

Row 5= broccoli and cabbages

Row 6 = beans

Rows 7-9, tree row and flower row along w/ secondary leg pot.

7-9 are still tarped off and will probably remain this way until season change.

In the "tree row" is a Moringa that's survived so far and a fig.

Flower row is still all grass and weeds.

Big pot has Marigolds and chrysanthemums along with grass growing in it. The grass will be trimmed and tossed to our chickens this week.

Both figs and the barely surviving dragon fruit tree. Aloes both in pot and in ground

Sweet basil and dill

Close up of the eggplants. Lots of flowers but no fruits do far.

Today I finally transplanted all my seedlings into their final pots. The above two are Celosia and Sunflower respectively, I also planted loads of seedlings of Marigold and Summer Cypress. I had sown the seeds of all these plants indoors, within the last week of February, and by now all of them were ready for outdoors. Marigold and Summer Cypress grow a bit faster than Celosia and Sunflowers but that is alright, make sure to transplant these plants once the seedlings of Sunflower and Celosia have around 4 non-cotyledenous leaves, if you delay it more then chances are that they might become leggy, so its best to avoid this situation.

Summer Cypress (Bassia Scoparia)

Celosia (Celosia argentea)

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus)
