Budding Vegetable Garden June 2010

The vegetable garden is thriving, I planted five varieties of potatoes, three kinds of carrots, snap peas and regular peas, beets, turnips, cabbage, radishes, three varieties of lettuce, zucchini and yellow squash, cauliflower, broccoli and brussel sprouts.  My biggest headache is keeping the horsetail weeded, it gets thicker every year and would take over if I didn’t clip it almost every day.  If I go away for a week it looks like a jungle.  I’ve tried everything from pulling up the roots (not recommended) to snipping them just below the surface of the soil.  They just keep multiplying.
