Our Little Urban Garden, Part 4

Dateline: April 14

It was finally time to get some of our seeds in the ground. It has been fun watching our son get into the gardening and growing stuff. He wants to do everything daddy does!

Raking. Sam needs a little help!

A lesson on how to push the seeds into the soil.

Intently watching the seeds.

Time to water everything.

We planted carrots, lettuce and onions on this day. Crossing our fingers that they actually take off and grow well in our little urban garden!

Our Little Urban Garden, Part 2

Dateline: March 15, 2012

Time to start some seeds and see if we can make them grow to something 

we can eat in the coming months.

My oldest had to get on the action and help daddy plant the seeds.
He's more anxious about this garden than anyone I think!

Putting the seeds in the beginning soil thingy (I guess I should actually know what it is called
before I put it up here for all to see how little I really know about gardening).

The one slight mishap of the initial planting was the fact that the soil pellets (for lack of the right term)
should have been watered BEFORE the seeds were placed. Lesson learned. Our hopes of anything
actually sprouting are diminishing quickly.

We are *hoping* to grow all kinds of wonderful peppers.

Stay tuned to see if anything actually sprouted or not....
