I took these three weeks ago of the green house and outside planting beds, then before I could down load them to the computer the camera went on a road trip. The camera, along with Hannah and Megan, visited Prescott, Jerome, Sedona and Flagstaff before returning home.

The only reason that I was able to down load this week end is because the camera's LCD died and so it missed out on a trip to Reno.

Back to the pictures, to the left is lettuce inside the green house, it is just about ready to eat now and has also provided plants for the Hydro garden.

Below on the left is more lettuce getting close to eating size. On the right is one of the outside planting boxes. In the corners I planted cucumber and Italian squash. In the major open area I planted green beans. We will have to wait and see if anything comes up. There are also some tomatoes and peppers in the center.

Above left is an out side bed with tomatoes and bell peppers. On the right you can see that I have expanded the hydro garden to 12 pots. These plants are about 2 inches in the picture, currently closer to 6 inches and very full. Everything grows so much faster in the hydro. The one tomato plant in the blue hydro has already put on a set of blossoms and grown at least 4 inches.

The next step will be to add another 12 pots to the hydro and get spinach growing again. The end goal is to have enough lettuce and spinach to not have to buy at the store.

If I was smart enough to know how to maneuver the pictures I would put them in a better lay out. For right now I am at the mercy of the program and my lack of knowledge.
