Gardening is pretty neat! I got 6 pea plants going that I am really excited about. They look really cool the way they grow. They have the grabbing tendrils and the way the leaves come out from the stem is nice. They are at 40 days and at 58 days are said to have the pea pods ready to go! That is not much longer aways. I can't wait until the flowers come. I wanted to grow pea plants not only because of my biology book having read about the study of genes through pea plants but also because of the fond memories of raiding the nearby farm up the road when I was a kid. I used to like to go to this old couple's farm and eat their delicious peas as well as their sunflower seeds and hang out and pet their goats. They were such a delight when times were dark at that pink house. Anyways, let me add pics of my peas and marigolds growth over the past month or so.
Pea plants getting BIGGER! YAY! All are grabbing! And another surprize pea sprout! So, total of 5 pea plants outside and 1 inside.
Peas first planting day.
