This week, the seeds we planted directly into our garden
grew. It has been exciting to see them sprout and grow so quickly in comparison
to the germination station. The radishes sprouted first, then the wax beans
sprouted and dramatically grew bigger than the radishes and sunflower sprouts,
which grew only a few days ago.

| Germination Station |
Our germinating seedlings needed to be thinned in order to
continue developing. After weeks of growing inside we had to separate the bunches
of seedlings for them to have enough room. Sadly, my Zinnia seedlings have
almost halted growing and wilted. The loss of my first seedling has taught me
something about patience. Even though it was my first seedling, it still ended
up dying yet my other plants, which I never thought would grow have all started
doing better than the Zinnia. It goes to show it’s not always the fastest performing
that performs the best.
Now that we’re separating our seedlings and maintaining our
gardens outside, I’m starting to see the therapeutic and relaxing aspects to
gardening. Seeing my plants grow everyday actively makes me a happier person, I
love the process of growing plants and helping them grow. I hope the Alyssum’s
we just planted grow big and beautiful as well!
