Things to do

Went to the hardware store early this morning and bought some tomato plants and some thyme.  I look forward to planting them but...that's allot of tilling i have to do.  So it will be a hard days work along with all the house cleaning, making dinner, and out for exercise with the girls tonight.  While i was in the plant section today i found a small version of some trees i have out back.  I think its fruit is edible and i never knew it.  Will do some research.

So it's the next day and i can proudly state that i tilled the soil, replanted in the way plants and planted the new arrivals.  There are 3 sweet bites and 3 patio hybrids that will mature 2 weeks earlier than the sweet bites.

I've now sown some mixed lettuce and mizuna.  Have not had much success in the past planting seeds on purpose and getting a seedling out of it.  If it self seeds it will grow well.  If i plan it out my plants normally struggle and then get eaten by something.  Let us hope and pray that i will have finally attained a green thumb and we get a great crop.
