Gardens

I have been soooooo busy trying to get all the gardens in order. Had to replant the green beans. I thought maybe it was too cold when I planted them but when I went to redo the area yesterday I found no old bean seeds. UGH!
Jake started all of our tomato and pepper plants in the green house at school. Great plants. He also started some herbs. I'm finally putting in a very small kitchen garden where I'll have my herbs.
The annual flower containers and window boxes look good so far.
The perennial beds are a LOT of work. So much harder to control the weeds when you don't till up the soil every year.
Something has been eating the summer squash plants. Think I need to sit out there at night with a pea shooter. We have mouse traps and human hair around them now. Anyone have the solution for keeping the nasty pests away, let me know!
