Midweek Update

Tuesday, June 3, 2008

I haven't done much of anything in the garden other than water and weed it over the past few days. I am yet to plant the Scarlet Runner Beans and am debating whether or not they are worth eating. The marigold and spinach seeds are yet to sprout but in a few more days maybe I will see something. Other than that my basil suffered a small tumble when the toddler upstairs was playing on the chair it was sitting on and knocked it over. A little worse for wear but it will be fine.

The rest of what is planted is starting to show some more growth, in particular the potatoes (pictured above) and bok choy are producing a lot of foliage. The peppers also seem to be holding up in what has been some cold and windy weather over the past week, with the exception of the jalapeño plant which is sagging a bit.

The forecast is calling for mainly cloudy with showers through the weekend which will mean less watering for me. There have been a few breaks of sun (like right now) but otherwise it has been fairly grey lately. It's June, bring on the summer!
