Babysitting Broccoli


November is supposed to be cooler than summer, although you wouldn't know that lately; a couple of weeks ago, it was in the 80's in San Diego.

Then we got some rain, which is very helpful.

When I took these pictures of Cindy's square foot garden frame, I didn't realize that only some of the veggies that were sprouting were ours; the ones in the white plastic trays belong to a neighbor and fellow Master Gardener who was going on vacation for a couple of weeks.  Since he was afraid they would all die while he was gone, Cindy volunteered to babysit them for him, and they did very well.  He gave us some of the plants when he retrieved them, so we'll have plenty of winter veggies.

Who knew broccoli needed babysitting?
