Well, it\u2019s time for another installment of The Veggie Files<\/a>.\u00a0 It\u2019s been almost a month now and things are going great!\u00a0 The plants are growing very quickly and with the exception of my lettuce, the plants are getting big and strong.<\/p>\n

\"Before<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see in this photo that my bean plants (left) have grown big and bushy and my cucumber plants (right) are getting nice and thick and strong.\u00a0 If you look in amongst the cucumber plants you can see the small sprigs that are my lettuce plants.\u00a0 They aren\u2019t growing very quickly and don\u2019t seem entirely strong, so I\u2019m still a little worried.<\/p>\n

\"Lettuce\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve replanted them in another pot on their own together to see if they thrive a bit more.\u00a0 If they start to grow into something a bit more substantial I will replant them again in their own bigger pots.<\/p>\n

\"Flowers!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My favorite part at the moment is seeing all these white flowers starting to grow on my bean plants.\u00a0 I think this means that the veggies aren\u2019t very far off!\u00a0 They are also getting very tall, I think those sticks may be in order soon to help them stand up.<\/p>\n

I didn’t get any photos during the replanting process because my hands were far too filthy to go near my precious camera<\/a>. \u00a0Just imagine me with a mess all over the balcony and enough dirt to start a second garden under my nails and you pretty much get the picture.<\/p>\n

\"After<\/a><\/p>\n

I got all of the plants replanted and made a veggie corner on my back balcony which gets the afternoon sun.\u00a0 For now I have two bean plants in each pot, but if it gets too out of control I\u2019ll try to separate them.\u00a0 With so many of the plants I\u2019m hoping that I can keep them together, we\u2019ll see.\u00a0 I really wish my balcony was bigger though, as this does take up a bit of seating area.\u00a0 If it gets to be too much of a pain I will move it out to the front balcony where we get the morning sun and we don\u2019t really sit out much.\u00a0 The cat litter is out there so it\u2019s not really somewhere I want to sit and have breakfast or anything.<\/p>\n

Oh, and if you were worried about all those pesky animals of mine<\/a> eating the veggies?\u00a0 You can relax\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Guard<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve got a guard duck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
