Jardin Progress

In March we started a garden in the southwest side of the backyard.  Well, re-started, as last Nov. I planted some carrot seeds that didn't appear to take.  To the contrary, we have four healthy carrots going now.  S mistook one for a weed and pulled it out today.

Here's what the garden looked like originally.

It's grown quite a bit since.  The only plant that didn't take was a pepper.  The lettuce hasn't quite taken off yet.  The four cucumber plants have taken off too much and are starting to dominate, without producing some nice cucumbers.  There's a few on the stocks but they're fairly small.

The tomato I picked was a little tart but still good.

The basil has really shot up too.  We've put some in salad and on pizzas.  We also swapped some with my friend for their lettuce leaves.
