Virgin Gardening!

I thought it was too late to do a garden at this point. I've never gardened before but I started back around the end of April or maybe May with trying to grow some seedlings, but almost all of those died...and then I got busy and ignored the idea of having a garden. Well today I was at my friend's home where she showed me her bountiful garden and was sending all of us home with her home grown product and I was inspired. Us ladies chatted about gardening and I was encourage to still give it a try because some things might grow still just fine.

Once I got home I searched the internet for "how late is too late to plant a garden from seeds" and the first article that came up was from Renee's Garden telling me it's not too late to plant even now in July! She also mentions how lettuces (including our most used spinach) and carrots are more of a fall crop being planted as late as August! This is great news because many of the things I wanted to plant are not behind at all! I can still have a successful garden! Yay!

I think ReneesGarden.com is going to be my new favorite site as it looks like there is tons of helpful information there that will help this virgin gardener to learn how to garden! Now I just have to get started, remember to water, and pray I get some sort of useful harvest! :D

Wish me luck!
