Spring Planting 2017 - November

It's now November, but we still have a few cold morning here in Melbourne.
Some of the seedlings didn't survive and I had to replant some seeds.

Fortunately most of the seedlings had thrived.
All photos taken on 4th November.

Garden Bed 1 - Leafy Vegetables

Succession planting from left to right.

Cauliflower, Choisan, Pakchoi , Lettuce, Herbs, Red Cabbage

Garden Bed 2 - Fruiting Vegetables

The capsicum and chilli seedlings didn't survive the cold September and I'm replanting the seeds indoor at the moment. Hopefully they will be ready in a few weeks time.

Tomatoes, Borage, Corn on the front row.
Zucchini, Pumpkin, Honeydew and Rockmelon at the back row they will be growing against the trellis.

Garden Bed 3 - Root Vegetables

Look how much the radishes and potatoes have grown:

From left to right: the lemongrass is greening up again, radishes in the middle, and Kipfler potatoes on the right.

Garden Bed 4 - Beans

From left to right: Broad beans, Snow Peas (the tallest), Climbing Beans, Snake Beans, Adzuki Beans

The first snow pea had emerged.
