What do I want from gardening?

2025-09-08-01

• Lettuce for salad
• As many cherry tomatoes as we can eat and share
• Marigolds, roses: Colour, play
• Radishes are fun too
• Perilla leaves
• Basil
• Mint
• Green onions, chives
• Lavender
• Bitter melon for W-
• Small cucumbers
• Strawberries

Overall:

• Things we use a little of at a time
• Things that are very tasty

Next step: Add more to soil to get more out of it:

• replace front garden with compost & radishes
• get the pots set up for lettuce

Things that get in the way:

• Heat
• Poor soil weeds > seeds
• Other priorities
• Waiting

First frost: ~ Oct 13

• get strawberries back in the ground
• another crop of lettuce & radishes
