Garden Journal-- Charleston

In vegetable bed B

• planted best boys, earl girl tomatoes
• 3 marigolds
• 50 yellow onions. it was already sprinkling when I started so I am hoping God will do the watering for me.

All seeds are germinating except butternut squash and the ones given to us by the Stinsons: chamomile, white chives, moonflower and rose of sharon. That's weird, but since they were "wild" harvests maybe they take longer? I peeked at Moonflower and there is activity there, so maybe it will work. That's the plant I want the most.

NO activity from my nasturtiums and cosmos on the slope bed. Will transfer my zinnia and four o clock there, and hope the stonecrops take off.
