Good news… my every-other-day waterings are working! I have about 8 little bitty tomatoes starting on the tomato plant that I thought was dying. My grape tomato plant is looking pretty good too! Still nothing on the lima brean front, but I remain hopeful.
Gardening is interesting for me… I’m really quite terrible at it, but for some reason I keep trying. I went to a class at a gardening center earlier this spring, and I was really convinced this was going to be the year. Turns out I still have quite a bit to learn, but that’s okay. I do feel quite blessed that I don’t have to depend on this little garden to feed myself or my family. Both my grandmothers managed to do that for quite large families, which is totally amazing to me. I think I need to drive out to the farm soon and see if there’s any tips I can get grandma to share.
Start small and work your way up. So far so good with the tomatoes! Yippeee!!!!
Signs of life are always beautiful even when they show up a little bit later than you’d like
I have the feeling gardening is about patience and persistence something my grandma has in abundance.
num num num homegrown tomatoes…I’m jealous! I hope they continue to thrive!
Your tomatoes look like mine. I just wish they would turn red!!!
