Challenges



Here is my unhappy garden. You will notice the most plants are in small peat pots. These plants were started in the garden starter system, and were moved outside. We did not get the raise beds built in time to plant directly into the ground. But this was a blessing actually, because 2 days after they were moved outside, we had a freeze. 2 nights were in the 30s. So fortunately I was able to move all the little pots inside to the garage until the cold weather passed.

But they look kind of droopy and upset now. I gave them just a little drink, on their roots only and left the leaves dry since it's not that warm right now, it's still in the 50's. Fortunately, if I have a loss, I can throw some more seeds into the AeroGarden. I actually have some extras growing right now: at least 2 tomato plants, 2 pepper plants, dill, and eggplant. We will see what happens...
