My new hobby and a question

[Alex Cruz]

So my friend and my aunt actually influence me to start my own veggie garden.. So tomorrow I am going to HD and going to get my stuff to get started..

I was wondering if anyone has their veggie garden and if so, what do you have?

I am aiming for:

tomatoes
asparagus
peppers (bell and hot peppers)
green beans
different herbs
bibb lettuce (not a big fan of regular lettuce and bibb lettuce is sooo expensive here)
and suggestions or recommendations will be appreciated.

I wish I could help Alex.... sadly I did not inherit a green thumb.  When ever I bring home a house plant hubs always tells it "Welcome to the house of doom!"    LOL  I so wish I could grow a garden I think it would be fun and save so much.  Good luck

I just bought tomatoe plants yesterday(because I refuse to pay the price in the store any longer and they taste like crap! Enough venting)Get a Roma and a slicer like Better boy.I also bought a cucumber vine cause I can't seem to buy cucumbers here that aren't bitter.I also grow basil,dill,and cilantro.I also just put in 6 berry bushes.Have fun alex!

Umpa,

what is a Roma and slicer?

[umpa]

Roma Tomatoes .A slicer  is a tomatoe for sandwiches like a Betterboy tomatoe.Roma tomatoes are firm and beautiful and last forever in fridge.doug just did a video for caprese salad that is a roma tomatoe meal. Betterboys and larger tomatoes are good for slicing for sandwiches or just sliced on a plate with salt.

ohhhhh ok... I will look for those seeds then.... especially if they last longin the fridge...  The prices are outrageous......  The only thing I cant grow is avocadoes... 

Thanks for the tip

Avocados are very good for you alex! I miss my avocado tree a hurricane took it out.If you have extras they are very good for a face and hair mask.

Hi Alex!

Your new garden sounds like it will be fabulous!

It may be a bit too late for asparagus since they are normally ready to eat in Spring.
But there is always next Spring!

We have tomatoes and pepper growing now We had green onions, lettuce, spinach and carrots before.  Best of luck with your new garden!

Alex add cucumbers and radishes to the mix....they grow quickly so you get sooner satisfaction  Have FUN!
