Growing a vegetable garden has definitely been a fun experience with, as with most things, came with a handful of challenges. One of those biggest challenges was trying to do so in a college apartment. Thankfully having a balcony made things slightly easier, but the lack of open land and direct sunlight are definitely factors as to the slow start to my garden. Naturally, this garden is growing a little slower than I expected, and though I am very proud of it, I am sure there is plenty more room for growth, no pun intended. But while o the topic of growth I am glad to document that all of my onion starts have germinated. marking a first in terms of all of one crop making it to daylight! Onion is probably my favorite vegetable so I can't wait until they are ready to harvest. I was also able to transplant my basil plant into soil since it has graduated from my germination station, and though I don't believe its quite ready for the pinching techniques we learned about this week, I'm sure it will soon be growing into a healthy herb that's will add another splash of flavor to my garden!
