Growth

Peas, 2/8/09. Just sprouting.

Peas, 2/14/o9.
Carrots in the middle, lettuce in the front.
Mystery crop from Jamie's sunday school class in the tiny pot in the middle.

Rather than buy cages or a trellis, I just lashed together some photinia and crepe myrtle branches with twine to create trellises for the peas to climb. I stuck the trellises in the planter soil under the "greenhouse" tarp.

Tomorrow, I will sow some pea seeds and lettuce seeds directly into the planter to see how they compare to the seeds started almost 2 weeks ago indoors....
