My husband planted 100 onions and harvested about 80, which is quite good! Our vegetable stand in the entrance way is now full of onions. I hope they dry properly and don't rot during rainy season.
I wonder how many onions we eat in a year... He put the onion stalks under the pumpkin vines. Unfortunately, the evil orange bugs don't seem to mind the smell of onions. It was worth a try...
Unfortunately I abandoned the blog while pregnant as I had to abandon the garden. Now my hands are full with Baby and trying to cook all the food my husband grows. Oh, and my school and the other two kids, too, of course. And it's hard to get decent photos while carrying a baby. I'm looking forward to when she is big enough for a baby backpack.
I'm thinking of starting a new blog that has more about raising kids, etc, until I can get back to gardening and photographs.
I am originally from Hamden, CT, USA. I have lived in Gifu, Japan since 2000. We moved to this house on June 30, 2007 and started to work on the garden immediately. Our yard was a completely barren sand lot when we moved in. I am currently mostly a SAHM to our three daughters, M (6/2004), L (10/2006), and K (5/2011). I teach English to children two days a week from our detached house.
