Raised Bed Gardening (part 2)

The garden is doing well…..and there are no weeds growing which is excellent. Since the first posting on this topic I added a cutting garden. It was a mother’s day present to my wife - something she wanted years ago. It’s small but should be sufficient. You can see it on the right side of the picture.

As for the specifics of the garden: I got the tomato plants in the mail last week and set them in. I had purchased the Best Of Show Collection which is a selection of some pretty neat tomatoes. They are still doing well so I assume they will survive. The cucumber plants are coming up and so are the carrots. The lettuce and spinach are doing very well and I was able to thin out the plants over the past weekend and I made several salads out of what I cleared out. The weather is in the 90’s (and has been for the past 3 days but by keeping it all well watered I think the garden will continue to thrive.
