I think that it's just ...Romina - I thought so too. I think that it's just a new way of doing things that didn't open for me until I became an adult. <BR/><BR/>You may find your interest grow as you get older, maybe not. That's really cool about your parents. You were able to grow up with fresh, local produce, grown in a proper manner. That's something a lot of us don't get to experience, many don't truly know what a tomato REALLY tastes like...<BR/><BR/>Alice - I know! I bet there will be too, I LOVE zucchini. And we already have back up plans if we get too much produce - first, hit up friends and family, then give the rest to the Central Missouri Food Bank. There are people here is Mid-Missouri that could really use any extra food we have.<BR/><BR/>Veggie Girl - How exciting. I bet that's really fun to do together. Brett and I have really enjoyed planting the seeds and watching the plants grow.<BR/><BR/>Pleasantly - I'm hoping so. Aw, that's really sad Lori! I'm sorry! My old apartment faced due North, so even though we had a porch, it didn't matter, our apartment spelled death to plants. :-(<BR/><BR/>Bianca - Hahahaha! I wouldn't say it has much to do with any 'skill' I have at this point. The plants have done all the work themselves, I've just watered them. :-)<BR/><BR/>Aw, what a bummer. I tried to grow cilantro last year, the bugs got to it in less than a week. I'm glad your better with animals too! ;-)<BR/><BR/>Leng - I know, I was starting to get a bit worried about it as it didn't seem to be growing after I transplanted. Then one day last week it just started going crazy.<BR/><BR/>I think the habanero is the one I'm most excited about too. I hope it goes nuts! I would love nothing more than a steady supply of homemade habanero sauce and dried crushed habaneros for over the winter.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-66738536632195712012008-04-28T02:13:00.000-05:002008-04-28T02:13:00.000-05:00the chard is sprouting like crazy!

Last year, I managed to keep the basil alive for most of the summer, but I killed my oregano, my tomato plants, my dill, and my mint within two months of transplanting. I much better with animals....Biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545245728462853370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-78723402115324486162008-04-27T14:25:00.000-05:002008-04-27T14:25:00.000-05:00growing yr own food is so satisfying. hopefully th...growing yr own food is so satisfying. hopefully the weather will cooperate and y'all get some awesome produce. thanks for sharing the pictures, although it made me a little jealous i am trapped in an apartment with no balcony.Lori- the Pleasantly Plump Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699666546756497381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-27259641891085717242008-04-27T13:06:00.000-05:002008-04-27T13:06:00.000-05:00That's fabulous that you're interested in gardenin...That's fabulous that you're interested in gardening, despite not being "raised around it" - my mom and I grow vegetable, herb, and flower gardens every year, so I definitely understand your excitement about your garden starting to show signs of life! :0)LizNoVeggieGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00785142908687097216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-15331620097858961302008-04-27T12:47:00.000-05:002008-04-27T12:47:00.000-05:00They're so huge already!

Maybe you are seeking to make up for what you lacked growing up? I've grown up surrounded by gardens and gardening. My mother is obsessed with plants and my father plants a garden here, and two in Italy, and he spends so much time in the summer enjoying his plants. I'm surprised I'm not more interested!<BR/><BR/>But it's so satisfying knowing that you are eating something YOU produced, and you know where it came from, who handled it, it's a great feeling of pride. =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
