My garden is two weeks old, 100% organic and I am just amazed by it's progress! Anyone else have pictures of their gardens this year, mine is small, but it's my first attempt. :)

I've got black cherry tomatoes, yellow bell peppers, red bell peppers, big red tomatoes (Mortgage lifters), purple bell peppers, cayenne peppers, yellow sunrise tomatoes, and yellow cherry tomatoes.

03/13/12 The day I planted my seedlings!

    I'm totally cool with talking to myself. And I'm obsessed and went out for more pictures.

    So you can differentiate from the background...

    I envy you!!! I love fresh veges & fruits but all the work required to produce that is tiring!!! And we have too many rabbits in our area & vegetable garden seems to attract them.

    My garden just got planted on Wednesday... and it is seeded... so it looks like a flat piece of dirt with a few bumps in it! Not hard to imagine at this point. Fortunately I didn't plant any plants yet... because it's cold out and we've had a couple of days this week where there was a freeze warning. Hopefully in a few weeks I can share some of your excitement!

    We can't start anything outdoors until mid May. I didn't want to be left out so here is our indoor garden that will be moved outside in May. All the snow was gone, but we just received a few inches this morning. Have Lettuce, Tomatoes, Peppers, and Basil planted. Strawberries will be planted soon as well.

    Well, the tomato garden that has not yet been planted - good thing... has been claimed (again this year) by the baby!

    I have some seeds started but I can't do a whole lot just yet b/c I'm in MN. I've been slacking so much this year though. I've been running a lot instead of gardening.

    Still in the 20s here at night...so no planting outside until May at the earliest.

    Have several trays of plants going in the house. 5-6 varieties of tomatoes, 2-3 peppers, carrots, onions, spinach and peas started so far! Just lost my watermelons to "damping off" syndrome!!!! UGH! Got to get my next 3-4 trays started...and fix my mold issues.

    Our garden this year will be 30' X 80'. YUMMMM!

    I gave up on a veggie garden years ago. Between the deer, rabbits, raccoons and slugs there was never much left for us. My raspberries froze to death many winters ago. :sad: I do have strawberries in a hanging basket that the critters (except birds) can't get to.

    Unfortunately, I have no garden and doubt I ever will. I have a brown thumb. Anything growing anywhere around my house is volunteer wildflowers or weeds. I can't even keep a houseplant alive. But thanks for sharing your pictures, looks like you're off to a great start.
