notes from my first spring with the community garden
- our soil needs more nitrogen. that fish emulsion stuff they got really helped.
- the soybeans did fantastic until they all got eaten (bunnies, I think). not sure how to prevent this.
- the golden cherry tomatoes did well!
- the swiss chard did not do as well.
- the random radish seeds they used to help break up the soil in the fall sprouted like crazy. maybe we can try to grow them intentionally next time?
- sunflowers grew really well too, even though we didn't plant them intentionally. (thank you, birds!)
