How To Make Seed Pots

Onion Plants
I planted some onion seeds and they came up………they are still surviving the heat wave we’ve had, and that’s a plus. The package said that they were winter worthy as well, which gives me hope that they will survive the winter.

Patio Plants
I’m not sure if you able to see them or not, but there are small flowers on my upside down hanging tomato plant. I live in an apartment and there’s a small patio which I’m able to get almost full sun. So, it gave me an idea to plant a few things that would possibly be beneficial later. I’ve not had good luck with planting in this manner in recent times, so I’m not sure if it will do well this time.

Rains Came
The DFW area has experienced rain the last 3 days that was needed and yet can be a problem. A moderate flooding has been warned, with possibilities of it getting worse. We are glad that the weather is producing rain rather than drought, which we have in recent years had.
The flowers and plants will thrive much better with this slow soaking rain. I fear the sun will come out with fierce rays that burn the new growth. One thing has been nice and that is the fact that this rain didn’t come with bad storms, we so often experience here in the Texas area.

Tomatoes
These are cherry tomatoes, and as yet they are very small. The rain almost ruined them recently. Some are already turning orange. We will see how well they fare.
September 20, 2009
I recently found some collard seeds, I had left over from last year. So, I planted them in this pot, and many of them came up. These were the only one’s that managed to make it through the hot summer months. Even though they made it, they are still very tender, and I have to protect them, when I know the sun is going to make it a hot day.

Public Market
A vendor sells fruit in a public market in Havana, Cuba. We often take for granted the nice supermarkets we have here in the states. There have been scares about pesticides being on these products from other countries. Still it’s nice to find venders who sell fresh fruit and vegetables in area markets……..
Urban Garden
A man waters the harvest in an urban garden in Havana August 11, 2009. Cuba’s urban agriculture movement, developed in the 1990s as a response to the food crisis after the collapse of its former benefactor the Soviet Union, provides over 50 percent of the vegetables Cubans eat.

Hanging Tomato
I’ve got several flowers on my upside down, tomato plant……….I hope they make tomatoes for me……….they are the little red cherry tomatoes, and usually make a bunch of fruit. Cherry’s are great in a salad, sliced in half……..and I’m ready for them to get growing…….please……..
