In this weeks class, we began by checking our plants to see if any pests had visited or any of the plants died. 

This collard plant had a few dead leaves and my tomato plants were not looking too good.

I was happy to see all 3 varieties of beans begin to sprout and hope to see them grow even more next week.

Our work in the field by first making a BT spray to protect our plants from bugs such as caterpillars. We mixed bt and copper then added water to create the solution. Next, we fertilized our plants using a 10-10-10 fertilizer. When that was finished, we went into the greenhouse to plant sunflower seeds. I then received a wonderbell pepper and a cilantro plant to add to our garden.
