Lettuce Sprouting
Wednesday, October 20th, 2010Earthbox Lettuce Planted
Sunday, October 17th, 2010Redid EB1 (Earthbox One) with all fresh potting mix, 1lb dolomite, 3c organice fertilizer (2c GardenTone, then ran out and used 1c other organic I had). Planted 6 Black Seeded Simpsons, 2 Lollo Rossas.
Earthbox Tomatoes
Wednesday, October 6th, 2010Thanks to this post by Austin Urban Gardens, I decided to plant two tomatoes in the pepper earthbox (on 8/30). Peppers were done. For some reason, it had not even occurred to me to pop my tomato seedlings in. I had planned on removing some of the in-ground spring tomatoes and replacing them, but the spring plants are still chugging along. Then the light went off when I read the above post (via the Earthbox Facebook page). Looking forward to the results. Planted one Aunt Ginny’s Purple and one Stupice (although I don’t recall which is which and won’t know for sure until I get some tomatoes).
Aunt Ginny's Purple...I think
New Squash Seeds Planted
Saturday, July 3rd, 2010The 8-Ball, Zephyr and Multipik have petered out. The Spacemaster cucumber has gotten a second wind and has produced another cuke. It actually produces tons of cucumbers, but very few get pollinated on this plant.
So, I planted three new squash seeds today to hopefully get some Fall summer squash. Trying something different this time. Just went to the local Big Box store and grabbed whatever squash seeds they had. So planted two yellow “Dixie Hybrid” squash and one “Grey Zucchini”. We’ll see.
Orange Bell Pepper Ready
Thursday, June 17th, 2010The bell pepper in the Earthbox finally turned orange. Only the side towards the sun turned orange. The whole thing became orange a few days after picking though.
