So it's official, the plants are growing! The compost is completely spread too, which is another HUGE step. It's now time to wait and see how the plot withstands these thunderstorms we're supposed to get the next day or two. The beds have been holding up relatively well with the rain we've been getting, but now with another layer of loose soil on top there could be some more runoff again. Which is why we're waiting to put the rest of the seeds in, lest they get washed away too. The tomato and pepper plants have been getting used to the outdoors though, and seem to be doing great. They are getting pretty big and I can't wait to move them to the garden. Pictures to come, but until then stop by and come check out the little plants, they're kind of cute. There isn't a whole lot to be done right now, but as always if you notice some weeds (or grass as the case may be) popping up in the beds feel free to pull them out. The plants we want are growing nicely in rows or small groups as indicated by the markers. As always, if you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns feel free to comment on the blog or e-mail at sfneighborhoodgarden@gmail.com
