Accident in the Garden!

A few days ago my little greenhouse was going strong. I had it placed on a chair we have outside so that it can catch the sun. Unfortunately I didn't know the fabric was dry rotted and my entire greenhouse fell and spilled everywhere.

So I had to start again and was only able to salvage the tomato plant which seems to have taken the brunt of the fall. My greens that had sprouted were all ruined but I stubbornly saved 2 and planted them next to the tomato plant. I had to replant the rest from seed again. I just hope they sprout soon.

This little incident pushed back my goal of eating a homegrown meal by the end of the year. I am now aiming for January 31st.

Goal

1: To expand my garden from 1 greenhouse to 4 greenhouses
2: To replace 1 meal a week with a homegrown meal
3: To also grow the 2 basic herbs
Cilantro
Basil
4: To quit junkfood altogether without any cheats

I believe that these are very attainable goals. And I would love to increase the homegrown meal from once a week to five times a week.

Next post will be a "How-To" make a $10 greenhouse for use in your apartment. I hope to include pictures!

Thanks for stopping by the farm!
