Vegetable Growing

I am trying to grow my own vegetables this spring/summer. They are all grown from seeds. It has been quite fascinating to watch how they grow. You will be amazed by the speed at which some of them, especially zucchini, grow each day!

This is pot of herbs. There was cilantro which grew like crazy so we ate them all already. Now there is basil, parsley, thyme and a few miserable chives. Oh, the marjoram were too miserable so I just snipped them off :(


These are the zucchini, cherry tomatoes and eggplants. There are also 6 sunflowers and small little marigolds growing by the sides of the vegetables.


These are the salad greens. They are supposed to be the cut-and-come-again type. I read that I can harvest when they are about 5 - 6 inches tall by cutting them 1 inch from the soil and then they will grow back again. I can't imagine it so we'll see if they do :)
