On September 13th  six raised beds of good ol' sandy Florida soil welcomed the Green Thumb Gator's to their assigned 25 ft. by 25 ft. plot in the Teaching Gardens. Although the chosen cultivars for the project were not planted that day, tomato, eggplant, and pepper transplants were. 9 tomato plants, 1 eggplant, and 1 pepper plant assumed their position in the Green Thumb Gator's territory. Spacing and watering were among the determining factors of how the plants were planted. Approximately 18 inches between each other the greenery was placed in the farthest bed, assuming there would be a decent watering pattern. Unfortunately, the Green Thumb Gators are not given control of watering nor were they informed of the exact wetting pattern at the time of transplanting. These "siblings" one could call them, for they are all Solanaceae, share condition preferences as well as pests. Each of the indeterminate tomatoes was encased by a comfortable metal trellis which will be very helpful in these herbaceous plant's futures. Thoughts of the future pertaining to upcoming residents of the garden were of the last thoughts sown on this day.
