It's all about the things I want in life,

the battle I face to get there,

the strength I need to make it through another day.

my ever growing garden

well first i added a few new plants to my collection.. some of my items didnt do so well, such as the peppers, carrots and cucumbers.. so i replaced the peppers with two new already established plants from walmart... i also got a yellow tomato plant to add....



so now i have 4 different tomato varieties... one of which has prospered from seeds, the other 3 i bought stalks that were established.... here is a picture of the two largest tomato's, they are on this enormous stalk that has at least 3 dozen buds...

2 pepper plants (i dont eat peppers...lol) but i have a mixed stalk that grows both red and green bells, and a separate that grows yellow bells... here is a picture of the first green that is coming through...Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket



my yellow squash and zucchini are doing well, there are about a dozen or so buds on each plant... on the yellow squash plant there are these long "strap" type things growing that attach themselves to things.. in the morning they will tightly curled around the pole in the middle, and my afternoon wrapped around a leaf's stem... here's a picture, you can see the swirly things pretty good, and the clusters of soon to be squash...

my eggplant plants are doing well, I have 3 in one big pot.. so far I have 2 thriving eggplants, and a few flower buds... i chose 2 different types to have some variety once they come through...



i found a mushroom in my squash planter about a week ago, it was so funny to see... I dont know about mushrooms but i probably shoulda let it grow and fed it to phil, he loves schrooms... but i plucked it out just to be safe...



a few more weeks i should have a full blown bunch of veggies to choose from.. until next time...
