I'm late - really late - in planting seeds for my summer garden. I typically do this in March but because I'm taking 3 classes on top of my full time job and I haven't had the time nor the energy. I barely had time to put some compost in the pot of my lemon tree, since it needed some food, was looking sad, and there was no time to make compost tea. My compost worms were traumatized during the move so I added some shredded paper for them to hide under. Within three weeks, I noticed something growing from under the shredded paper and was pleased to find tomato plants! Now I can transplant these seedlings into pots until they can hold their own. Pray they are not the pear tomatoes I planted last year as they are the only breed I didn't like.

I am also thankful that I saw some volunteers growing where my japanese tomotoes were last year. Keep my fingers crossed and my hands folded in prayer.
My garlic is growing in leaps and bounds. It's thick and strong and I'm quite pleased. I know it's, again, really really late, but I planted some more two weeks ago. They will just be smaller cloves and I can use the leaves for chives in soups or salads.
My cotton is doing well. I have lots of sprouts on the main branches and I plan on adding some compost soon to feed them.
