I'm a farmer! (wannabe)


I thought I'd try my luck with gardening. I'm not expecting much, though because I can barely keep our aloe vera plant alive.

Right now, I've just got tomatoes, cucumbers and corn planted. Later, I might add a couple of jalepeno plants and see how that goes.

I wasn't even sure how to plant the corn, really. I just ended up digging a couple of little trenches and spreading a bunch of corn seeds in them and burying them. I'm sure I did it wrong, but it'll be interesting to see what happens with them.

I didn't even really know how to plant the tomato starter plants. I had to call my mother-in-law to ask her if I was supposed to break up the root ball or not. So yeah, I'm pretty much a professional gardener.

Well I can't keep a bamboo plant alive, and they are supposed to be the easiest ones!! I think you'll have great corn!!
