the organic sessions

the plants pictured below were purchased as 3-4" seedlings last month. most of them were from a local garden center, but the thai hot peppers were shipped from brewery creek in minnesota. everything that you see has been fed with garden-tone organic fertilizer and planted in a combination of dr subers living soil, peat, manure and baccto professional potting mix.

sun gold cherry tomatoes

strawberries in terra cotta pot

thai hot peppers in earthbox


celebrity tomatoes in earthbox (foreground)
tomatillos in self-watering container (background)

jalapenos in regular container


these celebrity tomatoes will be moving to this awesome container if it ever comes in. (it's been on backorder for more than a month) and then they will be planted with complementary basil and marigolds.

did you say these were seedlings or started from seed? amazing. mine have been grown from seed and they are still very baby. i'm so jealous!

lettuce and wildflowers were my only seed projects this year. the flowers are about 4" tall, but i certainly can't say that about my lettuce.

yeah i have been debating. my lettuce is growing so big that i'm going to havee to start to harvest it and am wanting to throw seed down somewhere else to have lettuce later this year.
