Garden Update

OK a couple pictures.

My sugar snap peas are looking like plants now, instead of a mass of dirt with a cage sticking up, LOL. They're rather pretty and i can't wait to harvest. I hope that they grow fast enough to get a good harvest. it gets very hot, very fast here.

My strawberry pot of spinach and lettuce is doing alright. Some of the places are empty though and i'm not sure if they're not growing or if i missed a few spots. The rest are sprouting, but apparently they take longer than i thought they did to grow. they're less than 1/3 the size of the snap peas. I MIGHT pull them up and plant herbs in there, but i can't decide what i want to do.

I bought a cherry tomato plant, which i planted yesterday and some marigolds to keep the bugs away from them (it sort of worked last year) and then I got some Oregano, sage, thyme, and parsley. I have a large rosemary bush growing on the side of my apartment already. I will be planting basil with my tomatoes, because they really like eachother. I also planted some extra chives, because they did so well. The mint that i planted last year is thriving (of coarse) and so my place is greening up little by little.

I want to plant some cucumber too, but i'm not sure where i want it at, i'm going to have to make a trip into fresno to see what else they have. I don't want more tomatoes for sure, just the cherries.
