Cold & Wet Again!

Rainy and a 67° high temperature today. How awful! Is this keeps up there won't be much of a growing season. Don't mind the rain so much but the cool weather just won't go away. It is all Lake Michigan's fault as its water temp is in the 40's. Not good!

The good news is that there is new corn I just planted a few days ago is popping out of the container it's in. And some of the lettuce is ready to be harvested and eaten.

Another Chilly Day

It was supposed to be warm today with a chance of severe weather. But it never really got all that warm here and as a result there was no severe weather. Nevertheless it was a bit too cool for the growing season. All I did today was transplant a bean plant from a seed starter container into the ground. The pea plants I replanted the other day are doing fine.

Day 1 - Miracle Gro

Today was the first official 90° day here. It did not last very long as a lake breeze developed and brought temperatures down.

Today also was the first time I watered the garden with Miracle Gro. I used both the vegetable/fruit and fruit/flowers varieties.

I'm hoping this post will be the first of daily posts that I will be disciplined to create.

Past Growing Seasons

I will try to get hyped for this year's growing season by posting some photos of past years' wonderful growth.

This was the Wisteria in 2013.

2015 Growing Season

This year I intend to do a much better job with this gardening blog. I really want to take at least a few photos each day just to have a sort of visual progess journal of the garden. The growing season here is so short that we must utilize it to the fullest!
