Vegetable Garden: May Garden Update
I'm so proud of myself for making time to garden this year. As prior stated, I had no intentions on gardening this year pre-pandemic, don't get me wrong. I absolutely love to garden, however, it can be really time-consuming, and takes a lot of time and effort. Last year, I barely harvested anything, due to my schedule. I was just so disappointed. The year prior, was my best year yet. I mentioned last week how I received a donation of plants. Which really kicked started my garden for this year. I planted a bunch of seeds in April. However, one of my little furry friends had other plans with the seeds.
A lot of the plants I started from seeds are just now sprouting. If you guys remember, during the last couple of months. I've only gone to the store once, I missed the opportunity in April to pick up a lot of my garden supplies. I went in May and my local Bj's were out of a lot of soil. I even called other locations, it was really hit or miss. I'm thankful that I did find a bag of the potting mix during my last shopping trip though.
All of the plants that were donated to me have been potted. I also started working on regrowing scaps and seeds. I started an avocado from a seed, and I'm super excited about the journey. I'm still learning about regrowing scraps, however, I will keep you guys updated.
Also, I really have to start working on my fall harvest plans in the coming weeks.
Thanks for stopping by!
How's your week going?

Looks like you've been busy! I really want to plan a nice veggie/herb garden for next year. I've been TTC so my brain has been too preoccupied to plan anything.
ReplyDeleteI hope your vegetables continue to thrive! We sprouted some tomato seeds and pepper seeds, but when we planted them, something just bit the plants in half. It is very frustrating, especially since they didn't even eat the plants.
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! I so wish I had the patience to grow stuff. My mom has an avocado seed like that.
ReplyDeleteHow busy have you been, I love seeing how peoples gardens are growing and coming together!
ReplyDeleteGardening is one of my favorite hobbies. It's so relaxing. It has been really hard to find potting soil this year though.
ReplyDeleteI've never been very good with plants, but I can grow basil!
ReplyDeleteSeeing your plants grow is beautiful. One of the things I love about gardening is seeing what you create come alive. When they blossom, you will be so proud.
ReplyDeleteWe plant a garden every year, but this year we really struggled getting everything - I guess everyone finally wanted to garden, lol. Glad you took up something new, having a garden is a great choice. It's a lot of work, but completely worth it.
ReplyDeleteI love your garden pot I miss gardening. Since we move to California and due to limited spaces I have to give up my gardening hobby.
