First Fruits


First Fruits
Originally uploaded by Derek & Sarah Grant.

Our berry plants that we planted a few months ago are starting to grow some fruit! They aren't super sweet, though...maybe they are
getting too much water. It does rain everyday here. Anyone know how to get berries to grow sweeter?

We also have baby spinach, lettuce, potatoes, squash, green peppers, banana peppers, tomatoes, watermelon, and cantaloupe planted.
So far, only the tomato plants are big enough and producing fruit. Anyone have any tips on growing and harvesting the other plants?
We can use all the tops about gardening that we can get! This is the first time either of us have attempted a veggie/fruit garden.

It looks to me like they need some richer soil or fertilizer. Gardening is such fun! :-)
