As of this week, I do believe the garden has been up and running for a good 8 weeks now. I'm sure it should be doing a lot better than it is, but we have had a lot of crazy weather patterns. The garden does look
a lot better than this time last year. Some progress is still good progress, right?
If you've read one of my previous posts about
8 Things I Never Do In My Garden (Again) then you are aware of the fact that I am implementing some pest control this year, as well as weeding the garden a lot more. I'm not 100% with the weeds, especially since it seems the more I pick, the more pop up, but this time last year it was difficult to distinguish what was a seedling and what was a weedling. Part of the problem was that I had no idea what the seedlings were supposed to look like.
Here's how things are looking this week, week 8 of the growing season:
