Jules, thanks for sharing! Great tips – I’ll check out the youtube vids. I’ll get some updates going here soon. The garden is doing pretty well. I need to thin out the carrots, beets, beans and basil – I wasn’t sure how well they’d come up and overplanted – I need to thin them to allow for better growth. Keep me updated on your progress as well. – Dr. Lau

I was surfing sq ft gardening pictures just now before heading to bed.. I too have been captivated by sq ft gardening and have actually been reading about it throughout the fall/winter and have been gathering all the soil components to begin my own including requesting 2 cedar 4×4 boxes for my birthday lol. I’ve been gardening for the past 4 years and havent had much luck with anything out here in the desert except for pumpkins, cantelope, melons, grapes, kale and lettuces, so my dear husband hasnt had much faith in my new passion, deeming it a money pit and accrediting it to bad weather, not a lack of knowledge (since all my house plants are lucious and thriving). I accredit my past failures to extreme heat, compacted soil and a family of desert squirrels (hoping to eliminate that problem with our dog this year ) I feel that we’re on the same gardening level and look forward to seeing and comparing our progress throughout the season. I’d love to recomend a book thats greatly helped with what little sucess I’ve had, its called The Vegetable Gardeners Bible. I’ve tried row gardening, in ground, container and the ever so famous topsy turvys (Last years expensive venture) and I really think sq ft gardening is the way to go. I have nerve and muscle damage in my back an stomache including mild back arthritis at 28, and carpel tunnel in both hands so Im limited on what I can do for excessive periods of time (which is why I will never revert to inground gardeining again) not to mention im 14 weeks pregnant with baby #2. If you have a spare moment look up Donnas sq ft garden on youtube, its really brought me some insight and since our temperatures are similar, her being from texas, im extremely hopefull that Ive found my solution to organic gardening. I wish you every luck in your garden and im bookmarking you to see your progress as the months pass, HAPPY GARDENING! And I hope your children enjoy they’re experiance, I know my little one has! Best of luck – Jules
