Week 4

Word of the Week - Salsa Mode

Unfortunately, upon arriving to my garden, I found an ant pile up against my onions and radishes. Fortunately, there was an extra plot of land right beneath my original garden, so now I am starting over once again, with no ants! This week I was able to re-plant some of my onion, but started over with my radishes. I also got to transplant some tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. I was so excited when I got to re-plant my onion because I got to see the roots forming! Some onion showed growth through sprouting at the top, while other onions showed growth underneath with roots. Very interesting to see that they took different approaches on growing since they were literally only six inches apart.

I would have to say I am most excited to watch my garden bloom with flowers and see the growth that happens. For me, the garden is symbolism for growth as I am a Senior this year, and although I have grown so much as a not only a student, but a professional business woman. Starting my garden over does not bother me at all because life will throw curve balls and all you can do is pick up what you can and move on.
