The 2013 Goel Garden is looking good this month. So far we are harvesting lots of turnips, sweet potaotes, kolrabi, and lettuce. We also have some english peas, snap peas and grape tomatoes. This year I want to help Vineet more with improving the soil quality. He likes to take shortcuts, like using Miracle-Gro fertilizers which basically deplete the nutrients from the soil, even though the nitrogen helps the plants to grow bigger faster.
So this month he laid down Black Cow Manure and our garden compost and I plan to do a PH test on the soil to see what's happening in some of the beds that are not producing much.
This year the kids will also have their own separate garden where they can choose what they want to grow.
Here are some photos of what's growing...
