Is it done yet?

As much as I love being an ignorant gardener (after all, it means I am constantly learning!) but I am definitely NOT a patient gardener.

The cold box now holds 1 square of Buttercrunch lettuce, 2 squares of broccoli, 2 squares of strawberries, 3 squares of red oak leave lettuce and red sail lettuce (mixed), 2 squares of rainbow mix carrots, 1 square of vital green spinach, and 2 squares of mira green peas. That leaves just two boxes left, one each for a black krim and rainbow bell tomato.

We had a light frost last night, but the box was covered with a tarp (we're using old tent poles for a frame). Everything is looking good!

Three weeks in, and there's been exactly 0 incidents of weeding. LOVE IT. That reason alone has converted me to Square Foot Gardening.
