Twenty Nine Days After Planting 
Monday, November 6, 2006, 10:10 AM - Cycling
Just wanted to post more photos of my garden. Things are doing well, although something, a bug I presume, is eating holes in the leaves of my veggies. I'm going to have to live with it though because I won't spray chemicals on my food or in my yard.

Fifteen Days After Planting 
Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 11:30 AM - Cycling
These photos were taken on October 24, 15 days after my first planting. I also planted my last square two days ago, a variety of baby carrots that don't require a lot of space. They are in the square with new straw. The other squares of carrots are starting to come up so I'm slowing taking the straw off of them. I don't want to injure the new growth. In the third photo, you can see peas that were planted on October 15 emerging.

These photos were taken on October 18, 9 days after planting. All my seedlings are poking through except cilantro. Four days prior, I planted a variety of shelled peas that don't need a trellis.

Five Days After Planting 
Friday, October 13, 2006, 10:55 AM - Cycling
These photos were taken on October 13, 5 days after planting. In the top left photo you can see the squares where I planted carrots are covered with straw. I decided to cover them to keep the seeds moist because the afternoon sun in Ramona is still pretty hot. The two middle photos show the green leaf lettuce seeds starting to sprout. The bottom photo is the cabbage and brussel sprouts outside the raised bed. They are doing awesome!
