Weeding and Replanting

Those radishes are some easy things to grow. Or maybe Chris just used his Mennonite heritage when he planted them. Over the last few days the one row of corn that Avery and I planted have really grown. And the carrots!! Two rows of them are really taking shape!! Go Lyz!

Over the last week we have spent some time here and there weeding. Or degrassing would probably be the better description. Lyz is turning 30 on June 6th and we are planning a big party at their house to celebrate. We want the garden to look very good when people come visit it. We want to be impressive. As of right now, only those radishes are impressive!!

So Jenn and I went over today to finish degrassing and to replant the things that aren't growing. We filled in the two rows of corn that just don't seem to be sprouting. We planted two new rows of green beans since they didn't come up at all. We had 6 sweet pea plants that grew, so we filled in there. And we filled in the carrot rows where there were big gaps.

I must say that the garden looks quite beautiful!! See:

You can see the plentiful radishes on the left...next the carrots, and a few of the pea plants. In the back is the corn.
