How does the garden grow?

When we planted the peas, I wasn't sure how to support them without purchasing a lot of materials. As it turned out, Mom had saved some old netting and on a short visit home I found some unused stakes that I could use...




The netting is attached to the balcony railing with yellow yarn that I borrowed from another project. This will hopefully keep the weight of the peas from dragging the netting down.
There were also a few strategically placed nails on the railing (from the previous tenants) that proved quite useful.


The first planter.


I think this is mid-thinning...



And this is this week:
