gardening for dummies

Hello again! Usually when I don't write anything for this long it's because IT'S BEEN INSANELY BUSY 'ROUND THESE HERE PARTS!

The other day we went to a local nursery and they were giving away vegetable plants! Aaron and I had talked about doing a garden but I don't really have a clue so was dragging my feet- this works out perfectly because now if it flops I'm only out some hard labour.

I had dug up my beds about a month ago and it was such hard work that there was no way I was doing more digging so I just squished those poor little veggies wherever I could fit them. (I know you're not supposed to plant under evergreens but as I said... if they die... no biggie.)

Here's my gardens:)




I have lavender, lemon grass, basil, thyme, peppermint, lettuce, tomatoes, squash, melon, broccoli, peppers, onions and cabbage:) We'll see if it grows:)

Are these before or after pics?

And what I mean by that is; are these before pics? Or after pics?

These would be before pictures- as in before they died:P haha- only three deaths so far (the melons and the squash- I had them too close to the evergreen so I'm not surprised).

Oh okay, I couldn't tell if they were taken before you started working on the garden or after you started.

I got the plants when they were quite mature already. I should take some pictures once I start getting produce! I have some pepper, lettuce onion and my herbs providing me yummies so far....

Whats the difference between a garden and a yard?
