Vegetable Garden: 2012

Submitted by wafy on

Started a bit earlier this year on the vegetables. Still trying to put vegatables in with the flowers in the flower garden. Mainly because I don't know what is going to happen to the garage this year. More on that later. I am attempting the same as later where that annoying plant was to alternate corn and sunflowers for a taller fill in where the plants were. From the looks of it I might have more luck being I think the plant has died completely so far. I will give it until the end of the year before I count it completely out. Peas this year I am attempting in a 10" pot with a rack stuck in it.

Here is what I planted and when I expect when I get something out of it.

Well this year definately was not the year for me in plant growth. It was a relatively dry summer. Many of the plants where munched on by animals. I was able to see three Corn plants and two spaghetti squash plants this year. The only thing that got harvested was the spaghetti squash, which pretty much took over the garden, including going up my flower garden tree. I was able to get about 11 squash off the plant that were ripe. Gave most to my parents and keeped a few for myself.
