Gardening

Any hobbyists, market gardeners, or small farmers here?

Today I'm starting some seeds for my first vegetable garden in a few years, and the first at my own home!

 

I dabble.

 

Veggies (and chickens) here. So much work. Mostly worth it.

 

Over the spring/summer a couple years back, when out of a job from pandemic, I started with peppers and cucumbers. And tomatoes.... lots of varieties... the next year, I was working didnt have as much time. Still had fun.

This year. I dont have the time, though I feel like it has to be done, so tomatoes, cukes, peppers. And whatever else I can get.

 

Built this with fence posts this weekend. I've planted tomatoes, serranos, habaneros, cucumbers, squash, and watermelon



I'm new to all of it. The building part was fun. We have a bunch of seeds we need to plant too

 

Jalapeños, banana peppers, cherry tomatoes, green beans, and heirloom tomatoes! Can’t wait to get it going!

 

Ahhhh very excited for everyone!
I planted a bit ambitiously and got an April frost here on Long Island so I’m a bit sad but I’ll see y’all after Mother’s Day or when some of my indoor stuff gets going :)

 

Moved into a place with a yard and some raised beds already built. Got some cleaning/maintenance still to do, but got some lavender, chamomile, and mint planted. Still planning for: tomatoes, green beans, kale, and carrots, maybe some peppers as well.

Also planted a starter rose bush earlier this week

 

Experiments with indoor herbs are in progress I guess, but I’m already having plenty of learn-by-screwing-up experiences.

We got April frosts and I decided to wait until Mother’s Day to plant outside, so hopefully I’ll have something decent outside (squirrels be damned) in a little while.

 

I've got some tiny tomatoes and cucumbers going

 

Nice! Hopefully, this weekend Im planting.

 

I've got tomatoes and some peppers that I planted last week.

 

My first harvest. They're pretty small so I'm not sure if I should have left them in the ground longer, but some of the leaves were turning yellow so I decided to pull em. My arms and eyes are itching after washing/cutting them, hope that doesn't mean I'm allergic lol

 

planted this weekend, but not all the seeds:

Tomato plants, pepper plants, lettuce, spinach seeds, cuke seeds, radishes, - 15 plants in total and all the seeds.

Heres hoping.

 

gimme

 

Will trade green beans for lifting tips

 

high hopes for all these
