Boxes

Ok,

The Boxes are just about full I'll get pictures soon. But the Broccoli have small heads already and the potatoes are now growing full bore. The biggest tomato is about 18" above ground. Some of the peppers are a bit slow coming one and the beets didn't take very well, I may have to get new seed.

More to come.

Transplants Already

OK,

In two weeks the sickly tomatoes that Christine brought home are doing so well that they needed transplanted into bigger pots. So we did that today. You can see they they've taken off.

Also transplanted several other plants including some cucumbers and other tomatoes before they got too big. Hopefully we didn't set them back.

Also fertilized the bigger plants with bloodmeal while we were doing that for the garden. The most recent soil test showed the Nitrogen to be low. The greenhouse guy thought bloodmeal might be a good answer so we are going to try that. The rest of the nutrients were low to normal so I added some more 16-16-16 where I could. We'll see how well the bloodmeal greens up the plants. I've added some more greenhouse pictures on the rights.
