Crescendo

The very small beginnings of a watermelon.

Cabbage in all it's glory.

These early season cabbage are just about to start heading up.

Tomatoes will only ripen on the hottest days of summer.  I'm still waiting!!

The carrots are beginning to shine through.  To plant these we deeply dug the entire bed and mixed the tiny carrot seed with a gallon of potting soil.  We then spread the seed mixture in small furrows across the bed.  Carrots germinate slowly and the longer it takes, the more compacted the soil becomes.  We are hoping the tap roots that will later form juicy carrots made it through the soil without too much trouble.
