Garden Update

Our first update was on May 10th, since then we have planted 2 rows or peas and beans, lettuce, broccoli, cucumbers and tomatoes. This coming Tuesday we will be planting 3 jalapeno peppers and the rest of our peas and beans(we have a ton). Some things we have learned so far are: Stay on top of the weeds! They are the fastest growing things and they are over taking our garden haha, use a string to set your rows, use fertilizer when planting your seeds/plants, there are some awesome gardening hoes out there(lee valley tools) kinda expensive but worth it! Some of these might be obvious to you, but we are beginners. Know whats best for growing in this area. Town and Country Gardens are very friendly and have whats best for Idaho, places like walmart don't always carry stuff that grow well here. I think that's it right now. I'm sure we will keep learning by trial and error.

This was taken today, not the best picture. The church is growing corn, and thats what you see that is brighter green in the back of the picture. The only things we didn't plant from a seed are our tomatoes and jalapeno peppers. I'm excited for harvest!
