I woke up this morning, feeling fresh and revitalized, and excited to tour my garden to see any new growth from overnight. I like to do that before I go into work while saying my morning prayers as it gives me hope that the day will be a good one.
But alas! It’s raining cats and dogs out there! This is great though, because while I love to water my garden, I know right well that the water is coming from the city and is laced with chemicals. Of course, so is the rainwater, but it’s at least somewhat natural. Even with the substances in the rain my garden seems to like it much better than from the hose.
Some of my grape tomatoes are beginning to change their color. These plants I started from seed about 4 months ago, but frankly, I neglected them (and everything else for that matter) from November to January. It’s a miracle anything survived that period – apparently the will to survive is strong with these plants! I’ve tried many types of fertilizer, but this one seems to work the best – it’s called Jobe’s Organics Vegetable and Tomato Granular Plant Food.
I admit, however, that they don’t exactly look healthy and have only a few fruits, but that’s only because I started to care for them a couple of weeks ago. They’re getting stronger by the day.
