My Garden

I remember gardening as a tedious task of weeding and watering and could never really see the point of it. Probably because I didn't eat vegetables growing up. But a friend got me started on square foot gardening this year and I finally get what all the fuss is about. No weeding, minimal watering and my plants are HUGE already. Actually, since we recently started having a monsoon season in Utah, I haven't had to water at all.


Newly planted with green onions, anaheim peppers, tomatoes (I know I don't eat tomatoes, but I like salsa -hence the onions and peppers), yellow crookneck squash, and an unidentified plant that was supposed to be a pepper, but I have my doubts.









Just two weeks later.














Less than 4 weeks after planting.













Any guesses on what this is? It was in the pony pack with my anaheim peppers.
