Quite Contrary

Okay I will put in a few stages of garden photos here as it has really come a long way since the early days (at least the vegies as that has up to this point been my main focus. I will start with the rest this coming week I hope).

I soaked the ground with round-up to get rid of wild grass that had taken over. Then Maddocked the whole thing(here Boris did quit a bit of work my big strong man).





first in was the beans (thats them against the fence). They were planted on Nov 11 2006.






On the 17th of Dec the rest went in- corn ,zuchinni, cucumbers, tomatillos. I left the tomatoes and some tomatillos in pots as well... Chiles arent cooperating they may be a while yet unfortunately(possibly next years crop).






Going okay by the 6th of January.






By the 28th though......



And again todays photos show much growth in less than a week





Boris has leveled out the bore pump, and since this photo has put the roof up where it goes and the next step will be a cover on the front. We have been eating cukes and Zukes now.




that's a 750g beer not a normal!
