Garden Plans > 2013: Backyard Garden

About this Garden Plan
First year planting this garden. Started majority of the plants indoors from seed in early February, but lost more than half while out of town and had 3 days straight of rain while hardening them off. Salvaged what I had and bought a few to fill out the garden. Aphids were a little problem but have been taken care of now. Bed is covered with 3-6" of mulch with a weed cloth underneath the main center section with individual plants.
