I planned a pretty ambitious year this year although I don't know how it will go. I started a 150 sq ft no dig garden space for this year. Did the cardboard and compost method. Being a noob to no dig, I brought in compost from a local landscape place. Well that turned out to be (not yet finished) composted wood chips. So yeah.......nitrogen and everything else deficiency galore. So things are struggling a bit. I applied both blood and bone meal about 2 weeks ago and have also since done a fish emulsion feed. I am cautiously hopeful. So what I have in addition to the 15 tomatoes are

Sweet Peppers: Quadrato d' Asti Giallo, sheepnose Pimiento, King of the North, Etuda

Hot: A seed that I started from my Cayenne pepper last year. Don't think this plant actually is a cayenne looks like I got a cross, Fish (that also might be crossed), Habanero, Jalapeño, Scotch Bonnet, Sugar Rush Peach, Poland

Bush Beans: Dragon Tongue, Blue Lake

Cucumbers: Boston Pickling x5

Muskmelon: Charentais x3

Okra: Clemson Spineless x3, Jing Orange x3

Watermelon: Orangeglo

Winter Squash: Waltham Butternut

Basil: Genovese, Siam Queen, Blue Spice, Tulsi (Holy Basil)

Other Herbs: Cilantro, Flat Leaf Parsley, Silver Thyme, Tricolor Sage, Oregano, Chamomile

Flowers: Double Dutch Purple Cosmos, Candy Cane Mix Zinnias, Orange Flame Marigold
