Fall Planting in the Ground

I planted all the stuff today. I prepped each container with 2 cups garden lime. I also put two cups 10-0-10 fertilizer in a strip on the top of the soil.

In 60 days, (beginning of December) I should have tomatoes and peppers.

My son has planted the lone non-pepper survivors of my seeding experiment. We shall see.

Planting for Fall

Fall plantings are now on the schedule. Where are the seedlings from August?

Here are the results form 8 weeks.











Not too hot.

So...off to the Saturday Farmers Market.










From the Farmers Market, I got...
3 Bush Early Girl
3 Bush Beefsteak
3 Husky Red
3 Bush Cucumber
1 Basil

The basil was $2, the rest were $1.

Earlier, from Home Depot, I got:
4 Homestead
4 Big Boy

At this point, I may run out of room with my planters. Also, I need to research a little soil prep for the tomatoes.
