If At First You Don't Succeed

Earlier this month, I set up my raised bed garden according to the Square Foot Gardening book and ended up with 18 squares.


Believe it or not, that was enough room for everything I wanted to plant that didn't need supports, like tomatoes, green beans, and cukes.

Most of them were started from seeds, and I knew they wouldn't all make it. True to form, when I went out to check on them, some of them had wilted away.

I direct-sowed some more zucchini, carrots, parsnips, and green onions. We'll see how those do in a few weeks.
