Fall sprouts

10/16/2015 by Holly

We’ve been a little under the weather around here. ‘Tis the season.

Thankfully these little guys haven’t caught our colds.

The peas look off to a great start.

As do the various lettuces.

However, this is the broccoli. All of it.

I would love to say that I only planted this many seeds, but alas, I planted an entire package. I’m not sure what happened, bad pack or operator error…probably the latter.

Several of the summer things are still going strong and I just don’t have the heart to pull them yet. The okra is still gangbusters.

The peppers are small, but still coming on strong.  I wonder if they need to be picked small or can make it to first frost.

I can’t figure out how to collect alyssum seed. I’m guessing it’s about that time but I don’t see anything on these tiny plants that looks like it’s the seed.

If you know of a good “how-to” on alyssum seed or any tips will you say so? Otherwise I’m off to The Google again…

Happy weekend!

Oh, hi there

I'm Holly from zone 7b.
My veggies grow above ground where the rabbits help themselves, and the flowers grow in ground where the children help themselves. Sometimes I wish I was a pioneer. Then I move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and think better of it.
