Garden: the seeds are in

We went to the store to get some plants for the garden, but plants are way too expensive. Instead, we just went crazy on the seeds. I realize it's a little late for some of these seeds, but this is an experimental garden year for us anyways. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

Like I mentioned before, we're going to try the square foot technique, where each square foot has a different plant in it. Depending on the plant, you either put 1, 3, 6, 9, or 16 plants in the square (or something like that - we're not exactly following the rules to the letter). If all of our plants grow, we're going to have a crazy jungle. We even put some vine plants like cucumbers, and even some melons. I have no idea how those types of plants are supposed to work in a square foot garden, but that's ok.

So this is what we planted today: sunflowers, marigolds, peppers, watermelon, cantelope, sugarsnap peas, spinach, radishes, brocoli, lettuce, cherry tomatos, cilantro, carrots, cucumbers, onions, and squash.
