I only do chaos gardening now.

My seedlings didn't do well this year but there seems to be a bunch of tomatoes, cucumber plants and red mustard growing all over. All of them in very inconvenient spots. But it's happening and they are here to stay now.

I don't know why this cucumber plant is so big though. I didn't even know they could get to that size.

My other garden bed is an absolute free for all. I just threw a bunch of wildflower seeds from a nearby trial, a seed mix to attract hummingbirds, yellow clover and beans in there. Whatever happens, happens.

I'm pretty sure my dad hates it because there's so many "weeds" in there. I think it's pretty and there's always so many bugs hanging out there.
