garden!

Hoorah! I've finally gotten my act together to plan out my garden for this year, and plant our seedlings in their "starter" tray. Technically I think they're supposed to have 10 weeks in the tray, but I think 7-8 weeks would probably be fine... who knows. I guess we'll find out!!

I mapped out our garden on Excel, and I'm excited for it this year! We learned a lot last year of things we need to do (check the soil ph, get a week blocker or mulch, build a trellis for tomatoes, NOT plant certain things). I think this year should be successful.

We will be planting:

• Cucumbers
• Yellow Squash
• Butternut Squash
• Sweet Peas
• Early Girl Tomatoes
• Roma Tomatoes
• Cherry Tomatoes
• Red Peppers
• Poblano Peppers
• Carrots
• Yellow Onions
• Red Onions
• Spinach
• Eggplant
• Black Beans (for the fun of it!)

We planted more pepper varieties last year, and it wasn't worth it. They took up a lot of room, and didn't yield much. Tomatoes and squash were a winner last year. We're trying new things in the onions, spinach, and black beans, mostly for the fun of it. I'm excited to see how it all turns out!!
