Checking on the garden

 Well, I checked on my garden today :) and it looks like it's coming along nicely :)

my herbs, green beans (buttom left), cucumbers (bottom right) and honey dew plant!

The first flowers on my upside down tomato plant!

Potato plants (bottom and currently re buried) and zucchini (top)

As for taking pictures, I didn't get up early enough this morning to really get any visits (well that and I just refilled the feeders so they weren't expecting food).  Yesterday, late afternoon, however, the Robin who's nest is down the street came to visit me :)

I'm worried about all the little random plant babies I have springing up in the garden.  I think that since it's been raining so much some of the seeds might have gotten washed around and are now growing in unidentified non-rows.  Oh well :) This would be the type of thing I have been saving all the plant packages for!  Not pictured here are my onions (they are coming along well) and my lettuce (it seems stunted).  The potatoes are so far the crowning glory of the garden.  I'm having to add more soil once a day on average.  This is my first time growing them, so it's all new to me!  We've gone through two 40 lb bags of soil in the last week!  Everything I read online says (mostly anyways) to let them grow about 4-6 inches before you cover them (which I've been doing) and to stop when they start to flower.  So we'll see what happens!  Lulu (my tomato plant in the upside down grower) has two blossoms!  She has had a rough start.  We almost killed her trying to put her into the upside down grower (extremely difficult if your husband looses the directions) and she's acted like she has tomato blight a couple of times, but she keeps coming back strong so I'm hoping we'll get many more blossoms from her!
