Post #7008858

This is my very first year gardening so technically, I have no idea what I'm doing - other than learning as I go.
In honor of my grandparents, I planted by the moon as they always did. The results, I must say, are impressive. My garden looks like "honey I shrunk the kids" and the produce is coming along very nicely!! I did nothing to my garden before planting - no fertilizers, herbicides, manure, etc., and my garden is twice as big as my neighbors' gardens who have been gardening for years! Matter of fact, my one neighbor, who we bought our farm from, told me in the spring, not to plant my garden where I did because he tried that spot and could never get anything to grow there. ...I'm sold on gardening by the moon!! :) I sure wish my Grannyies and Papaws were here to see my garden!

I'll post 2 pictures. This one is from early spring. :) In it you see two kinds of potatoes, tomatoes, watermelon, corn, pumpkins, onions, and pole beans.
