This past month I have been planting vegetables, herbs and berries. So far I have planted strawberries which are blooming and have had a lot of sun, tomatoes that are already starting to redden and red bell peppers. I have also planted maiz and basilicum. The best part of springtime is watching things grow and become green again, and this year spring came very quickly to my city.
Strawberries, basilicum, tomatoes and bell peppers
Last year I planted cherry tomatoes from seeds, and they grew very quickly and even flowered. However, being quite inexperienced, I didn’t give them enough fertilizer. Fertilizing is very important for tomato plant health, and unfortunately they ended up dying after they started flowering from lack of proper nutrients. This year I have learned from my mistakes and am fertilizing them every other week.
