Plans Change

The Garden Has Been Under Cover Since Last Summer.

Well, plans change.  We will be leaving the micro-garden under the screen enclosure for now, and will plant in it soon!  This is the least expensive option and it is the easiest way to continue for now.  It won't be long until it gets too hot to grow most garden plants in Florida anyway.

Needs More Dirt!  And A Grid.

I have started more lettuce and spinach in the nursery and once it sprouts will begin to plant them in the garden.  The same goes for my herbs, four of each are planted and hopefully we'll have some basil and oregano sprouting in the next 10 days.  My kale and romaine lettuce plants are ready for planting!
My brother-in-law garden partner has been quite busy lately, and I expect he may help me with the garden project again soon.

In the meantime, I'm planting seeds and waiting for all the grubs in the garden to surface so I can eradicate them before they eat my plants.  I killed two grubs yesterday.  One fairly clean way to get rid of the grubs is to pour some beer up to the rim of a small cup, buried so the cup rim is at the surface of the garden.  The slugs cannot help themselves and will simply drown in the beer cup.  So there's your green gardening tip for the week.
Happy Gardening!
