Obsessed with Gardening - Version 2014

I am obsessed and addicted to gardening. It seems to be all I do and all I talk about! Starting in January I talked with everyone I worked with who gardened in the area and got as much advice as I could. I started plants inside... and they died. Then I planted more inside... and they died. Then I planted a third round inside, and they survived! Well... most of them :)  

I bought a bunch of plants at the local nursery, they were a lot cheaper than Walmart and much better quality as well. 

This year I planted:

-Strawberries

-Onions (both yellow and white)

-Artichoke (it died...)

-Cantaloupe 

-Carrots (only about 20 out of 200 seeds grew)

-Red Potatoes

-Broccoli

-Bush Beans

-Spaghetti Squash

-Cucumbers

-Zucchini

-Yellow Zucchini

-Bumpy Yellow Squash (I thought it was the same as yellow zucchini) I don't know what it is!

-Bell Peppers: Orange, Red and Green

-Jalapeños (not doing so well)

-Pumpkins (both pumpkin pie pumpkins and jack-o-lantern pumpkins)

-4 types of Tomatoes

... and I only used about 5/8 of the space I have for my garden!

Here are the beginning pictures:

My tomato plants. I have a few tomatoes growing already! 

My pumpkin plants. If I get a ton of pumpkins I am going to try to sell them!
