Gardening for Beginners
I got excited just a bit ago when I read in email that there is a class at the community gardening center that I joined for beginners. I need it. This class should teach us how to uncover our beds, amend the soil and get ready to plant our seedlings the first week of Sept. Remember here in FL we rarely get much of a winter so this fall garden should yield.I've planted seedlings only to watch them die. I can't even get them big enough to eat them as a sprout so I need classes.

Next year, just one zucchini plant will do (my Mom got carried away with her seeds). My tomato in the pot is not doing well and I'm just going to let it die. The one's in the garden are doing exceptionally well. Just waiting for the tomatoes to ripen.
It is satisfying on several levels.
To your learning and success.
V - the zucchini is great for breads, I agree, however I'm not much of a bread eater although it makes good give aways. I love it sauted with onions and tomatoes or raw in salads. Zuchinni is one of my favorites.
Looking forward to this class, lord only knows I need it.
Goodluck
I attended once before on how to care for orvhids so got some on my terrace
When I was small my father used to tell me, just put a seed on the soil and they will surely grow. Well my father believed I have that green thumb. But as for me, i believed it's not about green thumb , it's about how we take care. Should be at a proper time and the proper preapation of the soil. Proper learning is really needed.
Good Luck to you. Please share with us what you learned.
Plant them then forget about them but when you do remember them, don't ignore em.
Some say a watched kettle never boils
I love gardening. One of strange things I found about gardening was that if I talked to the plants, like greeting, complimenting or even threatening them, they grew better.
Try it!
I think this next yield will hopefully actually yield.
