We planted a garden this year, just to see what we could grow. I planted corn, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, watermelon, pumpkins, and beans. Our corn is doing good. Our tomato plant has 9 tomatoes on it. Both the watermelon and pumpkin plants are just little plants still. They aren't very big, and they only have a few leaves. Our carrots are going great though. I have never planted carrots before, so I have no clue how long it takes for them to be fully "grown". I decided to pick one, just to see how far along it was. They are supposed to get up to 7 inches long. Here is our first carrot.
Jacob was so excited to eat it. We washed it right away, and I cut it into 3 tiny pieces, so Cody, Jacob and I could each have some, and we ate it. I have to say, for only being about an inch long, it was still mighty tasty. :) I can't wait for our other ones to be ready to pick. I think next year I will have to plant more than 5 carrots. :)
