Sounds good to me: "I don’t have time to garden well. I garden anyway. Gardening is one of those activities like caring for children or learning about the past that rewards you for every little effort, no matter how small. It’s an infinite game." You can't lose or fail is what I'll keep telling myself:

I never thought I'd see it! We have about a dozen broccoli and cauliflowers forming. As you can see the leaves are getting eaten up. I've picked off a good number of cabbage moths. I'll probably get BT for the kale and turnips and things I'm planning on putting out soon.

Lack of labor? I haven't been out to the garden much recently - I'm swamped with my other jobs. Chris has been spending a few days a week out there, but the weeds are starting to take over and we haven't gotten rain for a long, long, long time...

Unfortunately, just about zero three sisters (corn, beans, and squash) came up. I think it's because of the soil - if the seeds did actually germinate, they probably died trying to push their way through the clumps of clay out to the sunshine. There are a ...

If my counting is correct, we got in 280 tomato plants and 300 brassicas this weekend. We still have eggplants, peppers, and okra transplants to put in. The southeast corner of the garden tilled up the nicest, so after the hard work digging holes and planting tomatoes, we planted a lot of seeds: onion sets, lima beans, and various squashes and cucumbers.
