The tiny space taken up by my garden. IMAGINE the possibility of this entire roof covered!
Now imagine the possibility of ALL of these roofs covered!
Do a week by week comparison...everything is growing so tall!
The broccoli, for which I had so little hope, has proven itself a survivor! All three plants are now flowering beautiful broccoli florets. What a testament to a plants ability to regrow new roots, shed and replace dead leaves, and adapt to new conditions!
Day after day, the leaves of more and more carrots chirp up!
After two weeks, I finally transplanted the last clump of seedling onions. Their roots had turned into a giant mass, and to pull them apart left some of the onions with virtually no root system and others with roots that did not belong to them. A week later, though, all seem to be happy, showing that with a little soil, sun and water it took nothing to grow back those roots!
Seedling onions (left) compared with transplanted onions (right). All are healthy!
When I walked up to the roof, this beautiful flower awaited me! Does this mean this is the start of a giant eggplant? We will soon see!
I fastened the tomatoes and eggplants one more time to the bamboo sticks with a scrap of pantyhose, about ten inches higher than where I had fixed them in place before.
Week by week comparison...the early susan (far right), meant to produce tomatoes sooner than most other tomato plants, is obviously at the top of her game.
