Organic gardening progress 9/4 - Week 3

I was out of town for 4 days helping my mom moving her stuff and when I came back I was surprised how everything grew just in 4 days.
My previous post are here and here.

Before leaving I built Veggie bed #3 and planted my tomatoes, okra and zucchini. Here how it looked on my first try.






Then I noticed that my cats still figured out to use this veggie bed as a litter box, so I added more folks... :)












Below is the latest update on this veggie bed. As you might notice I planted different salad greens as well as beets and radishes in between tomatoes. 













In my Veggie bed # 1 tomatoes are flowering and even have couple of baby tomatoes on.




 Zucchini is getting bigger 


Veggie bed # 2 doesn't look good. So I will have to figure out what can grow well on this side of the house.





This is my upcoming weekend project. I ordered dwarf Banana, Fig and Pomegranate trees. I will plant those into pots. Four cherries bushes I will plant in one of flower beds. Then I also received strawberries roots, which I plan to plant some in ground and some in a big pot. They don't grow well here but I will try again.


I still have half of Veggie bed # 3 is empty, so I will plant there those.



Here are two ladies who are always on a mission of destroying my veggies beds.


Happy Gardening!

New Veggie Bed - Week 1

Yesterday and today I was working on creating a new veggies bed.
So far it looks like this

I had to add these old flowers and folks in order to distruct my cats from using this veggie bed as their litter box.

I made a little diagram of stuff I planted there, so I would remember. :) I am not sure which plants actually will survive due to our weather and my cats but i will hope for the best. 



This is my veggie bed on the other side 




Not much so far...

I have a small messy veggie bed in the other corner of my backyard but it doesn't have much there instead of lonely cucumber plant, kale and parsley.

I think by posting pics and progress here I will stay more organized and keep working on my veggies beds instead of abandoning them. :)

Soon I will be planting these plants too. They are mostly tomatoes, lemon grass and something else. My cats dropped two boxes down one day and now I am not sure which plants are growing in this box besides easily identified tomatoes.
