This is a Thread about gardening if anyone’s interested in that. Due to not having a cellphone I can’t take (nor would I want too) pictures of the plants in our garden that Dad and I’ are working with. If someone does have a garden of any sort and can post pictures of their garden-I would love to see it! Or you can talk about a garden you would like to have?
I been working with Dad since Early if not Mid May with our vegetable garden outside. We have three members of the Nightshade Family (Tomato, Potato, and Bell Pepper), we have some spices- one is Thyme, and one is Basil, and the other is Rosemary the last one isn’t looking too well) and we have two vegetables from the Squash family (Cucumber and Zunnchi). And we have some beans as well… Dad been keeping the bean indoors overnight and taking them out on sunny days to let them get some sun in little containers- we have like 6 good beans but there’s one little “sleepy head” that doesn’t want to come out.
I planted I think 5 of the French potatoes we got out of the 13+ on my own two weeks ago when Dad was busy.

I don’t have a garden yet but I’m looking to buy some hanging pots for the balcony. I’d really like to do a vegetable garden but won’t have enough space for that so I’m thinking maybe catnip lol
I have potted up my Black Pepper Mint and paint-bucketed up my Lavender. Also went to the garden centre today. Came back with six sets of vegetable plugs along with marjoram, lemon thyme and curry plants. Rather miffed that they seemed to have every variety of mint except Basil Mint.
I just learned today what garlic scapes are! I only first heard the term last night because Mom was asking if we had any and what (weatherman on the news does with them).
Dad said he thinks this year will be the first time he has a big garden flourishing. I wonder if it’s because he’s not doing it all by himself like he has been? That two people are taking care of the garden (me and him).
Dad did try to show me yesterday how to turn on the water to the hose by the house but my fine motor skills got in the way.
Our one bell pepper plant has produced some “fruit” (ie bell peppers). They’re really small but they’ll get bigger soon. And the beans Dad planted about 2-3 weeks ago has finally sprouted
There is a female flower on the Zunnchi plant. I notice it when I took another look at the Zuchini plants and notice one was a bit “swollen” underneath a female flower
As I mentioned the other day there’s is a female flower on the zunnichi plant. It’s suppose to rain overnight and all through tomorrow. So we don’t know if the female flower will get knocked off or not
