Baby Zucchini & tomatoes!

Late last night I was excited to see the first zucchini of the season growing! I also spotted small tomatoes on my container grown tomato plant! YEAH.




Last night I pulled up my pea plants as their harvest has ended. I cleared the area, loosened up the soil and transplanted another zucchini plant I'd started to the area. Today I will likely plant something else in the remaining available space. I hate to waste any space that can be used to grow something!

Container gardening

I had never planted in containers before this year. So far my container garden is doing well.

Growing Sweet Potatoes

Growing Sweet Potatoes is new quest for me this year! It seems easy enough so far!

A couple months ago I put a regular storebought sweet potato in a cup of water. I've continued to keep it full of water & in a sunny location. Below you will see my Sweet Potato Man is doing great!

I recently cut a couple of the sweet potato starts from the top of my Sweet Potato Man & put them directly into some potting soil in a 5 gallon pot (pictured below). I also put a couple starts in my backyard garden.

UPDATE: Here is what the same sweet potato starts looked like come July:
