Name of the Game


Weeds do best when watered often!

The name of the gardening game right now is determining which little leafy greens are sprouts that we planted and which are weedy intruders. We've learned to identify 4-5 of the most common weeds, but it isn't always so easy to tell. We're either really good at weeding out our little plant sprouts, or several of our main crops never germinated. Reports from other gardeners are that it has been a tough year for germination because soil temps haven't gotten as high as they normally do. Be that as it may. . .we're pretty sure we've uprooted some of our precious plantlings ourselves. Sad. Oh well, we've reseeded some areas and are moving forward.

Everything you see here is a weed!

Evening gardening is the best!
