So it's May 5th and it's time to start my Garden! I decided for this year I would try Tomatoes, and Cucumbers. I got the Tomato seedlings from Lowe's and the Cucumbers from Suzy's boss (Bob A.). I believe he got them from a Garden Fair, which sets up downtown Chicago. A big thanks to him, cause these plants seem like they're going to be heavy producers!

To give the plants a good start i replaced most of the dirt from the planting holes with "Miracle Grow Garden Soil" which I lined the holes with as well as packing the plants to the soil line.I figured this would be a good start. I also decided to use "Miracle-Gro LiquaFeed" to water and feed at the same time.

(Sorry due to illness I did not get pics of the baby plants).
