I love seeing what’s coming out of my garden over the last few months. Here are some pics of the growing progress!
Me and my friend Holly ate the beet greens, they were awesome! Cucumber is still growing!
Once I can get a new camera, I will be posting video updates like… http://www.youtube.com/user/Praxxus55712 This guy is a great gardner, I love watching his videos for ideas and unique things to try. He even gave me a recipe for compost tea!
Compost tea if you have not Compost!
2 cups of used coffee grounds
half a bucket of grass clippings
Add water and let it sit for 2 days!
I am now testing this tea out, so far I am not sure on the results but I will update!
Next food experiment is!!! Radish Leaf Pesto! That could be interesting! I am growing radishes and I have a bucket full of radish tops!!
On another note, today I am thankful I live in an area that allows me to have a garden on my own property!

I think it’s rediclious that a city is against someone having raised beds or a vegetable garden. The fact that they are fighting this… what a waste of the cities time and money!
UPDATE COMPOST TEA:
I didn’t use it properly, I let it sit too long and when I went to dump it out, it smelled like liquid poo. YUCK, great for the garden but, not for your nose lol
