This time of year I always have a hard time spending it indoors. We've been lucky enough to have wonderful summer like weather the last few weeks, so I've been spending most of my free time outside playing in the dirt or grime. Here's a look into what I've been up too...
The lettuces are coming in nicely. I bought these as starts, for some reason I've never had much luck starting lettuce from seed.
Sugar snap peas, just starting to climb up their trellis.
Tater towers. This is a first this year. The potatoes are started in the bottom and as they grow up, you add more straw. I'm excited to see how well this really works.
Two types of spinach, sometimes I don't even know why I bother growing lettuce when spinach grows like weeds here!
Pretty rows of beets and carrots. I'm happy to say I was quite successful transplanting a bunch of the beet seedlings. I still have a hard time killing off all the extra plants.
I started this cute little pot of lobelias and petunias for my mom for Mother's Day. I even welded up the cute little stake.
I've been spending quite a bit of time welding lately. This little gear-gobbler is a mixture of car and kitchen parts, and was my first piece ever sold! (thanks, Mom!!)
