Today I finished the new layered bed. I planted a row of canteloupe; yellow squash and zuchhini with nastursiums; and a half row of cucumbers and a half row of watermelon. The sun was very strong today, so I kind of thought that's all I would do. However, after supper I was inspired to finish. I put in 4 roma tomatoes, 2 different bell peppers (Golden Doe & Islander), and a galine eggplant.
In the next few days, I hope to add sweet potatoes and perhaps some sunflowers to this bed. I think I will plant okra where I had the greens. The mustard is bolting now and the collards and kale didn't really come up.
We had nice lettuce, spinach, radishes, and the first of the peas in a yummy salad tonight! Yay!
