Amateur Gardening

As gardeners go I am among the most amateurish, last weekend I went out and bought several plants for some flower beds and my vegetable garden, then spent most of the day in the rain tilling and planting. It all looked pretty nice untill saturday morning when the temperature dropped to 29 degrees and a hard frost fell on all of it. Today it looks more than abit dammaged. Fortunately in the vegetable department it was only my tomatoes that I will lose, none of the flowers look like they will make it. All pros and even most amateurs know timing is important. I enjoy yardwork when I have time to dedicate to it, I always have a nice veggie garden and usualy my flower beds look nice mostly though I find it hard to break that stage where you are not batteling the constant overgrowth and can begin enjoying the gardening part. When you have to do your weeding with a chain saw something is wrong.
