How Do You Make Your Garden Grow?

Someone asked if they could see pics of the roof garden, so today I went up and took a few and decided to spam you all with them. I also took a pic of the VASE OF SIN that I mentioned in the previous post.

First, the crackle vase that I stole from the church:

Not the most beautiful piece of crackle that I own, but I'll go to hell for it anyway.

Now the garden. Here are the two shots of either side of the roof:

( Garden Left, Garden Right )

Those are the two vegetable plots. We also have a few spots for just flowers, and a kiddie pool that we filled with dirt and seeded with grass so that our guinea pigs could have a lawn to munch and run in. It's surrounded by flowers. Here the pic of that:

And now some closeups of some of the veggies that the garden is producing. Let's see, there's tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, corn (2 pics of that--a long shot and a closeup of one of the cobs), watermelon, yellow squash, spagetti squash, and lastly carrots.

And that's what our garden looks like. We've gotten peas from it as well, but they're done already so I couldn't get a picture of them. We have green beans and some peppers that have only just flowered. And for some reason the acorn squash has tons of flowers but no actual squash started on it yet. Perhaps more pictures will be posted once some of that stuff starts producing.

(Yikes! I didn't realize the carrot pic was so out of focus. Sorry about that.)
