I forgot to mention that for the purpose of school, we made a nature journal. We first started with putting pictures or journal entries of random things we experienced in nature in there. We will still do that if it suits our fancy. But we also added a chart for the garden. We had started this on a posterboard, but it was just too big and we could not find a place that made sense to hang it up. Plus, we kept adding too many things to this whole garden plot experience. I made many of the initial entries, copied from the posterboard, but now, Jackson is making entries as well, which are basically simple observations about what is growing or changing with the plants in our garden box.
Tomatoes, January 4th, 2014. We bought these ones from the garden store and planted them on December 26th. A Whopper plant and a Better Bush plant.
Tomatoes. We had to cage them, yay!! January 15th. You can't see it very well, but the plant on the left actually has a green tomato on it.
This is a tomato that we started from seed on December 15th. We transplanted into this container on December 26th. This picture was from January 4th.
On December 26th we replanted the egg carton with all tomatoes. As of January 4th, we had 4 sprouts.
As of January 7th, we had 9 sprouts and one of the sprouts would end up having 4 plants in it. Oops! Max must have been helping with the planting, lol.
