If you recall, we gave square foot gardening a try this summer. The edible plantings did less than spectacularly. The squares are wildly overgrown, yet I have only gotten a couple of cherry tomatoes and neither of them was worth eating. The radishes were way too pungent and spicy and the bell peppers got attacked before I was able to harvest any. I did get a ton of basil, regular and purple, and I've frozen two gallon bags worth. Penguin Girl's flowers have done better. Despite having to re-plant three times because of critters eating the seeds, we now have a few pretty sunflowers. Her wildflowers also came up. The morning glory looks like it still needs a little time to get more viney and flowery.
