We're buying a house and moving!! So much for the garden I've worked so hard for. I ended up planting some seeds in containers, buying some started herbs and summer squash, and trying to do a quickie garden that will be ready to harvest by mid June. We won't have time for longer growing crops like peppers, watermelons, and tomatoes, so I am just doing 3 types of squash, bush beans, and a cucumber. It's still something. I figure I can move the containers with plants fairly easily and harvest as many squash as possible before we move.
I am really liking the old kids water table planted full of leaf lettuce. The lettuce is really coming along, I'm happy with it. My radishes are basically done, there are a few stragglers trying to still grow, but it's really getting too warm for them now.
I"m still planning on gardening at my new house, even though the yard is smaller. It may not be much a summer garden this year, but hopefully we can do some fall and winter gardening with peas, radishes, and lettuce and the like.
