Well, last night the temperatures plummeted to about 30 so we’ll see if any of these varieties I planted are frost tolerant.  Pray that they recover.

Well, I couldn’t help but add this picture of my 3 year old, Emily helping me in the garden – One of (probably the most important one) of the reason’s that I chose to go organic in my garden is my kids love to help me in my garden – my oldest daughter, Amanda pics beans and eats them right from the garden – there’s no way I could put chemicals and pesticides in there…

Getting ready to plant!! April 15, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — tbalch @ 4:47 pm

I can’t wait – spring is finally emerging!  I’ve been growing seedlings in the house and all seem to be doing well except not one of my ‘California Wonder Peppers’ have sprouted yet.. I’m not sure why – the rest of the tomatoes, peppers and onions are doing fabulous.

This weekend I’m going to try to get around to tilling up the soil, adding my Pour N’ Feed for Vegetables and adding my Organic Weed N’ Feed.  I’m going to take a before and after picture of the yard so I can compare how my new products are doing.  I’ve also got some pre-emergent weed control that I should go ahead and put in now so that I can till it in as well – but then I’ll have to wait 3 weeks to put in the seedlings.  I”M sure that will be fine – they are only a few inches tall but I’ll need to thin them out if I plan to wait.  I’ve been using my SeaResults Micronutrient Solution on my seedlings (every other watering) and the growth is really amazing!
