Still watering the gardens 3 times a day- thinking I need to slow it down. The far east bed doesn't get any sun until 11 am so not sure if it needs this much water. Tons of growth this past week, especially with the cucumbers. They are popping up everywhere. I am currently trying to break my addiction of picking the little sprouts and smelling them. They already smell like a cucumber.
The corn has sprouted and is about 1.5 inches tall, watermelons have popped up, and so have the wild flowers and more zinnias. Even the sunflower finally made its way to the top of the soil. Seeing the plants start to grow has given me more motivation and encouragement. I enjoy going out and watering 3 times a day so that I can check on the growth of the plants. My kids tease me and say that there is a new baby in the house- or actually out of the house- since all my time is spent reading and watching. What a great hobby.
