I removed the love seat.
Moved in a table that Poppa built me years ago as a display table when I had my shop.
Brought in two 36" x 15" deck planters, with the help of my assistant Miss Beebs.
Positioned them on the table.
Filled the planters with dirt.
Planted beets, turnip tops and salad lettuce in the top one yesterday. Our neighbor brought us fresh turnips. I cut the tops off and put them in water. Overnight they had started to grow so I planted them as an experiment to see what happens. My mother use to garden by the different phases of the Moon and she always had the most wonderful garden. Root crops by the dark of the Moon and above ground crops for the light of the Moon.
This green house project has taken me several months of working in very small increments of time. I'm amazed and what can be done in just a few minutes if worked at methodically. We had a problem with flooding and I'm hoping I have taken care of that problem with some work that I have done outside which I hope to show you soon. For now the green house is finished except for redoing the window screens. Next I will be tackling my Raised Garden project! Don't we have fun? Get out there and play in the dirt. Digging in the dirt is healing and good for the soul. ~E~
