Thank you, Gayle, but I bought my plants a lot farther along than yours were. I was looking at the tomatoes this morning, and there are not new blooms on them, but they do look heathy and like they are growing. Hopefully once they are settled into their new home they will get going.

So sorry to hear about the squirrel episode. We are in such a new neighborhood (about 12 or so years old) that we really don't have squirrels yet. Being new though and on the edge of town, we do have things like armadillos and skunks. LOL

Thank you, Diana. I sure hope I'll be picking tomatoes. We'll see how it goes. I'm doing all I know to do to make it successful, but it's an experiment. I saw people growing tomatoes in smaller containers on roof tops in Germany, but our climate is way different here. Fingers crossed!!!

Rex laughs at me when I tell him I'm going out to check on the "garden". LOL

Everyday when I get home I look at (my) Rex & Rowdy and say, "Let's go check the garden" and they are out the door before I can turn that direction!!! LOL!

I have to carry my Zoe to see the garden since we have no fence. She's too ferrocious for her own good and there are some big dogs in the neighborhood that are loose sometimes, but she enjoys the outing!!

Plants don't need watering, so I spritzed them with liquid seaweed today.

Ladies your garden looks great!

I wish I had a green thumb I have enough property about a quarter of an acre. But I don't plant , flowers or veggies.. I should take the time and learn. When I have my hubby plant flowers they soon die , I guess you do have to water and feed.

Gina, you should get your husband to build you a raised bed for flowers or vegetables, and then follow the square foot gardening technique. http://www.squarefootgardening.com/ It is so easy and I know you would be successful, if you uhmmmmmm..... WATER it
