Moonlight Becomes You


Hello and welcome to my update on how crazy fast things have been growing around here. 
I was noticing a large amount of growth in the past couple days and was quite shocked but then I realized that the full moon was coming and no wonder! I am believing more and more in this planting with the moon and the signs as it is working quite well for my garden. I sowed some beet seeds on a root veg day and they were up so quickly I could hardly believe it. 

Here is a Photo of this rose plant that I planted earlier this year. I love that all the flowers are different colors. I think this shows the three stages of their color change. Starting yellow, turning into a Tequila Sunrise, and then white and hot pink.


This is only one of my Lettuce beds. I started a row of carrots and a row of Beets in there because I realized that I did not plant enough of them. My other lettuce bed is insane and all the lettuces seem ready to eat and as much as I eat them they don't seem to diminish! Help me eat Lettuce!



These potatoes will soon take over the world if they continue to grow at this rate. They are already dominating their bed and trying to consume the onions and garlic right in front of them.


My friend was over the other day and suggested melons. Why didn't I think about that sooner? 
So I planted some cantaloupe, honeydew, and watermelon there at the end of the fenced bed. I'm taking a risk here but so far the dogs haven't trampled to death any of the other plants outside of the fence so we shall see how it goes!


Hello Compost bin. You cannot see from this angle but there is a potato plant growing out of the side of the Compost bin! I decided to let 'er rip and see what we come up with later. There seems to be a Tomato growing out as well but I have so many tomatoes that I do not know what to do with them! I may turn into a canner...


Hmm...can't see very well but in this picture there are a lot of transplanted Tomatoes, Sun flowers, watermelon, artichokes, grapes, peach tree, apple tree, olive tree and somewhere hiding in the grass some squash or pumpkin or zucchini or cucumber(I can't tell which) that didn't get space in the beds so we're just seeing how it will work out in the wild of a grassy splotch in the yard.


And that is it for now. 
The End
