Our Progress in Growing-Mckayla Ella Madison Fay (FEMM)

Radishes and Rosemary

These are all the plants that have grown to adulthood and have been harvested by Fay Ella Madison and Mckayla
Radishes, on May 28th we harvested at least 10 Radishes from our garden outside. During our growing process we planted them in small containers transferred them to big pots and then outside onto our plot of land. We also left some radishes inside to test the difference. After a few weeks our radishes had grown, but we noticed something. There were chunks taken out of the radishes outside. After a while we came to the conclusion that the turtle that lives in the lake was eating them. There was nothing we could really do but transfer the okay ones into pots and put them in the greenhouse. Finally today 90% of the radishes were harvest ready while the rest were put in the lake because they were dead or eaten. We took them inside and cleaned them off and cut the leaves down.


These were just a few of the radishes that were eaten

Rosemary on May 28th we harvested our rosemary plants and got them ready for drying and crushing. We will then package the crushed rosemary for selling.
