YOJP ~ Weeks 13, 14, 15 and a garden report

I've been keeping up with the

making of projects and the posting of projects

but haven't had a lot of time to blog about projects

or anything else for that matter.

You'll see why shortly☺

Lets get right to it ~

Did a quicky wrap bracelet for Week 13

Did these little cuties that  match my Week 12 project

(mainly because I hadn't taken the time to sort and put away the beads☺)

 

Then these for Week 15

All of the components in these were part of

one of the Bead Soups that didn't get sent off.

Now for the garden report.

I am trying to plant most of what I am putting in my raised beds

 this year from seed.

Keep in mind that this is my third year even trying to grow vegetables.

The first year was just in the greenhouse.

Then last year we put in some raised beds

and I think they did very well.

This year we're adding more beds

Lumber and soil for new beds

In addition to the 10 ~ 2x8 beds we already have

 we will be putting in 6 ~ 4x8 beds

I'm SO excited

(and I know by the end of summer I will be saying

"What the hell was I thinking!" ☺)

On the first of March
I planted an experimental batch
just to see how long a variety of plants would take to grow
in my storage area.

Top pick is at 3 weeks
and the bottom is at 6 weeks.
I don't know if these guys will last another 6 weeks
in my storage area.
We'll just have to wait and see
(and do a lot of pinching back)
The real planting started on march 15 and March 23

Seedling on March 29 ~ about a week old

This is one of several trays.
These guys are about a week old☺

Here we are after the first transplant.

Ignore the million and one power cords☺

This weekend was (hopefully) the last "transplant" until they
go outside in 6 weeks.

Trays 1 & 2
Tomatoes, iceberg lettuce, peppers

 Trays 2 & 3
More peppers, cauliflower and broccoli

More peppers, cauliflower and a couple of marigolds
just for the heck of it☺

I'm kinda excited for summer....
Can ya tell?
