So that's our garden this year. We're making adjustments as we go.

Had to replace some plants. Learned our lesson about leggy seedlings too. The soil was bad, so I tilled in amendments and then stacked a 6" raised bed on top of the amended soil.

In addition, we have watermelons, honeydews and cauliflower growing.

Here's a picture of the garden before I setup the smart pots and the stackers!

The berm in the back of the pictures was finally removed by the builder. Unfortunately when it went away, so did our butterfly garden that was growing. So we reseeded the butterfly garden now that the berm is gone. Hopefully it will catch up!

Questions, comments, etc. are welcome!

It's our first garden at our new home
