I planted some beans and they were growing steadily for a few days. One day i woke up and the had a growth spurt overnight! They grew so high that I couldn't close the lid to the seedling box! They were beautiful and healthy. Unfortunately, the yard was no where near ready to be planted in. The previous tenant left the yard completely trashed. There were rocks and garbage everywhere. So we set out to clear the yard, and all we find underneath is sand after feet of sand. To find some dirt, I have to dig in about 3 feet down. That is not happening.
While working on the yard, the beans grew very quickly. Now i transplanted them into a few cinder blocks outside. We finished making the garden bed last night, and will transplanting the rest of the veggies into it tomorrow. I made it a little taller than normal due to our horrible sandy lot. I will be layering it so I don't spend a fortune on soil.
Now inside the house, I have been growing a few herbs on my windowsills. The basil has been growing fantastically, but the parsley never sprouted. The Thyme has started sprouting recently, and I am very anxious to grow some! I am also growing some Jalapenos that have been growing beautifully. I have been trying to grow a few others, but they haven't sprouted yet.
So that is a quick rundown of what I have been up to. Now we can move on to the Giveaway!! One winner will win a Surprise Spring Box filled with .... Surprise items! Haha. You will for sure be receiving some seeds to start in your home, and some surprise items. Of course the seeds will be nonGMO, so you do not have to worry about that. Since this post is full of "green", I made one of the entries to post a picture of something you planted this year on my Facebook Page! Remember to come back to this page daily for extra entries!
