Day 144

Today I FINALLY planted the garden. I set the box up a week ago but it didn't look like it'd filled with weeds while I neglected it. Also the stupid top soil I shouldn't have bought made the soil rockier looking than the normal garden ever had. :p I'm hoping if it ever rains here again it'll somehow smooth itself out.

Regardless, I went to a local garden stand and got a flat of vegetables and some marigolds. In the picture: there are tomatoes to the right, zucchini to the left, brussels sprouts up front and peppers in the back. I need to add beans to the top corner, they're soaking now so they'll sprout faster. I also have a couple things from Barbara, more tomatoes and peppers. I'm thinking of adding some more things outside the box, maybe some corn for fall decorations and pumpkins. I'm a little worried about the soil quality since the garden hasn't done so well lately but I figure if it's things we aren't going to eat it doesn't matter if it actually grows.
