We have arrived at the eight week mark! While some things have taken off swimmingly, other things have been an utter failure. Despite the fencing I put in a few weeks ago, the bunnies have somehow managed to come in and eat all the swiss chard I have attempted to plant (after three rounds I decided to give up). I have been taking notes as I have replanted and moved some plants around. Sadly, beets do not get along with the soil in my plot. Fingers crossed the vertical potatoes take off.
The tomato and tomatillos are doing amazing well. In only a few short weeks there will be tons of low hanging fruit; I can start making all my most favorite summer dishes and canning things to be enjoyed throughout the winter.
