My veggie garden this year has been doing so much better than last year. Last summer growing in ground was so hard! The soil hadn't been used in years and before only for crab grass which became another issue, and we started out with a horrible earwig problem. This year though, the raised beds solved almost all the issues. I say almost because I think that the fact that we have had very little moisture has contributed to not as many earwigs. I thought that they would be so bad in my garden where the water and food is, but I think because last year was pretty dry too that they aren't as bad now. I mean, I am no earwig expert so I really have no idea. This is all pure speculation on my part.
The plants that I thought would do good in the back bed all died and the ones that I wasn't so sure of are doing awesome! I am going to be having another update soon because we are getting fruit now!!!! I think everything that is left other than the herbs and the sweet potatoes is just fruit. Cucumber, peppers, watermelon, tomatoes, eggplant.... Yep all fruit! No wait! We have some carrots! Woohoo!
Soon I need to start my fall garden crops. Even though we got such a late start, half the bed in the back is free so I can use that to get me started. And things like radishes grow so quickly that I can plant them a little later. I'm guessing that we will have a decently long growing season for the fall garden but I want to do hoop houses around the beds that I can use to keep greens longer. That will be so nice if I can convince my husband of my genius.
