Wordless Wednesday: May 8, 2013 (w/linky)- Time to Plant a Garden

The weather has finally warmed up and we decided to plant our garden this past weekend. We had the grandparents down  to visit, had a cookout, and just enjoyed the afternoon together.























I'd never seen beet seeds before. They are sort of weird looking.

  11. I might have enjoyed gardening more when I was younger if it included a cookout like yours! What fun.

  15. Hot dogs! YUM! When I was a kid I went through a phase where the only thing I ate was hot dogs and jello. Not much has changed.

  20. Good luck with the vege garden!!! Remember though, the N:P:K ration of fertilisers contribute to different parts...

    Nitrogen (N) is the main nutrient for new, green growth. Plants that are almost all leaf (such as lawn grasses) need plenty of nitrogen, so the first number is especially high in fertilizers for lawns because grass must continuously renew itself after mowing. The higher the number, the more nitrogen the fertilizer provides. However, for Leafy Greens production, if you don't want lettuce's to go to head, keep it low...

    Phosphorus (P) promotes root development which helps strengthen plants. It also increases blooms on flowers. Lots of phosphorous is great for bulbs, perennials, and newly planted trees and shrubs. They depend on strong roots, so fertilizers meant for these plants often have high middle numbers. It is good for 'Root' Veges, Potatoes, beets etc...

    Potassium (K) improves the overall health of plants. It helps them withstand very hot or cold weather and defend against diseases. Most soils already have some potassium, so the third number in the fertilizer analysis is usually smaller than the other two.

    Mines up as well at AussiePomm - Sunset in Sydney

    Have a great day!!
