Never Too Late
I had big plans for gardening this year, and even purchased my veggie starts on my last stretch off, but I put off the planting because I wanted to do it all at the same time. Bad idea! My plants suffered for it. Last Wednesday, while I felt a cold coming on, we rented a roto tiller and started in on ripping out our side yard. We tilled, removed dirt, weeds, grass, flattened out the dirt, put black plastic down, and covered the side yard with 7/8 in rock. Mark even created me another garden box for my squash. My brother was a huge help, and we were able to finish it all in a days work. We also purchased Tegro planting soil and freshened up the back yard with it. My plants are mad at me for not planting them right away, and in the process of waiting to plant them, I've misplaced some seeds that I just purchased. After all that, now I just have to sit back, and wait to see if my plants are forgiving enough to grow this year.
