Veges ahoy!

I've finally finished planting my vege garden. I use the term 'garden' fairly loosely - I rent and have no back garden to speak of so I've had to plant in pots. It's a ridiculously expensive way of doing it since I had to buy lots of potting mix and of course all the pots. It would probably be cheaper to buy my salads and not bother growing anything but I don't care - gardening is fun, even on a teeny scale.

Here is a pic of the whole thing. Yeah, it's small, but I live alone so there's actually more there than I can eat. From the foreground to the far end we have cos lettuce and iceberg lettuce (with marigolds to keep down the bugs), then a herb pot with spring onions, chives and basil, some yellow capsicums, chilli, mini red capsicums, apple cucumbers (the little, round, white ones), grape tomatoes, some more lettuce, strawberries and snow peas.

And look! My capsicums are pregnant! So are the tomatoes but the picture was blurry.

Fingers crossed they'll live long enough to harvest. :) It's very satisfying, anyway... which is a surprise to me because I've never been interested in gardening before. I'm sure if this process had involved digging and spading (is that a word?) I would have lost interest a lot earlier.
