July 6, 2009 Today we had a casualty in Nate's garden. One of his Eight ball zucchuni plants was infected by cucumber beetles. It had to be pulled out. Several little squashes and peppers were found through the gardens. Nate's Burgundy beans were blooming and Reilly's peppers had more blossoms.
Our lesson was on zones. We found out that seed and plant information need to say Zone 5 on it for the plants/seed to grow well here. We learn when is the date of the last frost in the spring and the first frost of the fall. Our plants need to be able to grow and mature in between those days.
We made ladybug beans bags and played 'Fly Away Ladybug'.
