I am no expert but I think I have a good idea of what I'm doing so will document my gardening happenings as they progress. I grow all of my garden plants from seed I start myself.
I have decided to utilize an organic companion gardening system for the veggies that we use most. Last year I had problems with pollination - so this year I need to attract the good bugs with flowers and pretty things. I'm excited to put things in the ground!
