Growth

Well, here is the progress. Hopefully this is what it should look like. Had you asked me three days ago how my garden was doing, I would tell you AWESOME. Then I drove by a neighbor's vegetable garden and decided mine was not so hot. The story of keeping up with the Joneses. Those darn Joneses.
We'll start with some of the most impressive to lift my spirits...

tomatoes

Sugar Snap Peas- I wasn't so excited about these taking up room in my garden, but they sure are pretty.

two rows of onions

And one of the sadest...carrots. I know, they blend in with the weeds. Ryan doesn't think they are growing anymore so we are going to watch these closely. My lettuce is another dissapointer. I think I am going to call it quits and see what happens. Just in case nothing happens I have planted two more varieties of lettuce (Territorial Seed Co. LT400 Summertime Crisphead and LT395 Winter Density Romaine). I also planted my pumpkins today. We are going to be pushing it for them to be mature by the monday before Halloween for FHE pumpkin carving.

Jen,

Your garden looks great! We are done with peas already here, it's just too hot now, but they were yummy while they lasted. I also ended up just hoeing up my carrots and planting other veggies in their plot.
I enjoy both of your blogs.
