Well, a lot has passed since I last updated- I had a decent harvest from the SFG, but also had some disappointments. My cucurbits (melons, squash, etc) ended up getting a really bad case of powdery mildew. My rainbow carrot blend turned out amazing- I want to grow that again. The corn didn't pollinate completely (I think maybe it was just too crowded). Then no garden the following year and...
I've moved. To Montana. I won't go into too many details- it was actually kind of a traumatic time for me, but now I'm here in Great Falls and this summer I'm going to have another garden, this time at the local community garden, Pea Pods. It isn't set in stone quite yet but I foresee no problems getting a 10' x 4' SFG plot and I've already started tomato and eggplant seedlings. Thanks to Sprout Robot, I have a pretty decent planting schedule and at some point I'll try to do a quick tutorial on how I've done the plantings.
I've got a Pinterest Board set up for my gardening stuff, so if you want to see what's inspiring me you can peek at it.
Of course my copy of All New Square Foot Gardening is in storage with a lot of my other stuff since I moved, but luckily the local library has a copy that I was able to check out today. I should be able to get most of the planning done before I have to return it, but I can always renew if need be.
Anyway, I know it has been a long while since I've posted, and hopefully I'll be able to keep the blog going for the full season this time around!
