Transplanted some of the zucchini, lima beans, lettuce, and cucumbers in the garden today. Also sowed seeds for a container herb garden.

Plants are growing as expected and beginning to outgrow my container. I finished the raised beds outside, just need to fill them with dirt and start transplanting some of the bean plants…probably later this week.

Transplanted the bean plants along with a couple zucchini plants two nights ago. Everything is looking good, including signs of pepper plants. Next steps, begin hardening off the plants and get the bed boxes finished.

Signs of tomatoes have emerged, 12 shoots to be exact. Still nothing from the peppers. I’ll also be transplanting some of the bean and zucchini plants this weekend.

Seedlings continue to develop nicely. I finally have a Supersweet (cherry) tomato sprouting. I’m also looking to add walls to my garden to create raised beds…more on this to come.

Seedlings are coming up nicely, except for the tomatoes and peppers. I’m a little concerned, but it’s only been seven days, so they still have time. The seed packets gave a germination of 7-10 days…fingers crossed.

Beginning of the 2012 garden season…this year, I’m sowing my own seeds for everything (hopefully).
