    Talking Pictures of my garden

    ~I put in all my tomatoes, peppers and marigolds today. My three beds are completely filled up now. I had to separate some plants so I hope I didn't kill them. :/
    I also made the tomato trellis frame today. It was so easy! I saved $4 by not buying trellis but recycling a holey soccar net.
    It's been 5 weeks since I planted the first seeds. Harvest of lettuce and spinach starts tomorrow! ~

    That looks so awesome! Is the top part just crisscrossed over the surface of the contained area or does it go down into the soil to keep the roots seperated?

    Love it! Looks very nice and organized. Like the way you separated. Looks like you have a very large yard or acreage. Nice, very nice.

    Looks great.

    I'm in N.E. Pennsylvania and I'm anxiously waiting till after May 15th as that is considered the safe period to plant toms, peppers and cucumbers for this zone. It still gets pretty cold in the evenings and I made the mistake of planting some cukes this past Monday. Needless to say they didn't make it. Thankfully I only put 2 plants that I grew from seed in and have others I can plant after the 15th.
