I also planted Jicama, Gourds, and lettuce.
I planted herbs and scattered them out next to plants they are to make good companions for. I planted the Oregano and Basil next to the Tomatoes. The Sage and Rosemary next to the Potatoes. The Chammomile with the Onions. The Parsley next to the Asparagus. Some Dill in a corner all by themselves. They apparantley do not play well with others. In the herb section of the garden I planted Cilantro, Thyme, Marjoram. I then planted Marigolds throughout the garden. Last year I planted marigolds around the perimeter of the garden. I thought I would mix them within the garden this year to see if I have better results. I am going to keep particular attention to the eggplant. Both Eggplant plantings last year were immediately eaten up. Harvesting of my cole crops this season has been zilch. Both the bok choy and Napa Cabbage bolted. There is always hope for the fall plantings. As for the Broccoli and Celeriac, both seem to be doing really well. I have never grown broccoli successfully. Granted, I have only tried twice. Knock on wood this year is a Broccoli success. As for the Celeriac and the Jicama I won't know how successful they will be until the end of the season.
I have high hopes for the potatoes. I have never grown them so this is a learning experience just like all my gardening ventures.
