Day 7 of Zucchini, Cucumber & Okra
Each day I have been putting the plants outside for sun. Our dining room doesn't seem to have enough consistant lighting. Since zucchini, cucumber and okra are normally seeded directly into the soil outdoors, I didn't have to worry about having ultimum conditions for germination.I can already tell that the zucchini are going to be huge.
The cucumber are pretty large too.
I was surprised by the okra. The directions said they don't germinate for 2 weeks, but it's only been 1 week.
11 new eggplant seedlings have germinated. I guess it wasn't warm enough in the house for them to germinate.

I started some new herbs again because the previous ones did not do well. I didn't plant them deep enough. When they grow large enough in the planter, I will remove some to put around the yard.
Marigolds are supposed to distract insects and therefore keeping them away from your vegetables. Not all marigolds work. These Snowman Marigolds called Calendula.
