Did some early morning gardening keeping the grasses and weeds in check after I cleaned my grills and threw some meats on the Traeger smoker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s amazing all the little grasses that come up weekly. The grass and weeds most under an inch tall mostly but after I was done today that grass and dirt intertwined in the roots was about half a 5 gallon bucket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway some items like the Thai basil bush the bees love are producing and other plants like my \u201chusky cherry tomatoes\u201d are thick with ready to turn red fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have gotten several sweet and purple basil sprouts from seeds mixed in the soil from when I turned and mixed the soil with my rototiller. Also getting some squash and cucumber from seed mixed in the soil from rototilling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I kept one side of the garden for plants that run and have vines like squash, cucumbers and watermelon plus a couple of rows of peppers. The other garden has tomatoes egg plants, Swiss chard and items like that. I have spices like basil, rosemary, sage, tarragon and mint on both sides in various spots. Plus have my raspberry and grape vines dominating the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The side with the running vines and plants doesn\u2019t look as developed but when they start growing they will be all over the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s the pictures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will be adding other items as I get time and moving some of the items once they get to a certain size that came up from seeds mixed to various spots from my turning over the soil from prior years plants. I moved one plant today that had come up to close to a pepper plant that sprouted from a prior years plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can\u2019t wait to start eating from my garden again regularly!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
