greens

This morning the baby took a long nap (doesn't she look like a gardener's child, in that cute green outfit?)
so I was able to sneak out and look at the garden. The other thing in abundance right now, besides Strawberries, is Lettuce. My Lettuce spot is very full! I've never had such healthy, lush Simpsons before.
I managed to weed the Swiss Chard while I was outside.
Here they are viewed from the other side.
The plants are finally starting to put on some growth, though not as fast as I'd like. I think the soil is poor, here- they need more compost feeds. And slugs are eating holes in the leaves.
