New Garden

We decided to plant a garden this year.  We only had a small place but there were lots of weeds and monkey grass to remove.  It took two work days to clear out everything but finally got it done, and it looks great!

This is the garden before.

These are our zucchini plants.  I planted them last Wednesday, and they are sprouting already! There are four plants (only two growing yet).  Can't wait to harvest some of these and grill some kabobs!

This is the garden after the first half was cleared and planted.  I planted two Roma tomato plants (on the left), two Homestead tomato plants (on the back right), and two hot banana peppers (in the front).  I think it looks great.  We just need some rain!!

This is my cilantro planter.  I had six sprouts but three died because I left them in the sun too long one day--it was extremely hot that day.  I have three still living and planted five more.  Hopefully, there will be some new sprouts next week.

These are my other herbs.  All my chives (in the back) are doing great.  The parsley (in the middle) is good--I had one casuality with the hot weather.  The thyme (front to picture) is so-so.  Lost two plants and it is not growing that much.  I am patiently hoping it makes it.
 

Also, I have spearmint which is sprouting like crazy.  I will also be planting yellow squash next week, but we need more soil.  I really like gardening.  It is tons of hard preparation work but the outcome is a great reward!!
