Garden Progress




This garden picture reminds me of the girls' bedrooms. The dirt is like their carpet...you only see it for a brief moment right after they clean. Soon, the carpet will be covered in clothes as will the dirt be covered in weeds. But weeds aren't all that bad...they have saved many a vegetable during drought periods through the years. I also believe weeds help to keep the harmful insects off of the plants. Speaking of which, we bought a praying mantis cocoon. As soon as it warms up to over 75 degrees for a certain period, 300 babies will emerge and supposedly eat the bad bugs.
