Welcome to the Covenant Classical Gardens! We have an exciting year ahead of us and our botany class will be taking advantage of the warm weather the Lord has provided us with! Our compost bin is now completed, and the greenhouse tables are under construction. A tiller was finally provided and we prepared the soil so we can begin planting our greens. Adam Jackson's orchard project has been completed and it is now our job to ensure that we maintain his work, and God's creation.

How To Grow Tomatoes
Well, I actually had a hard time growing tomatoes at first. I think my main problem was that I kept over-watering. When you first start growing your tomato plants you have to make sure that the soil is completely dry before you water them. Even if that means that you only water them once a week. Also, never ever put fertilizer in the soil to grow your tomato plants, because that's what killed my tomato plants. I lost about a whole flat of tomatoes by putting fertilizer in the soil. If you just water the tomato plants about once a week, then they will grow to be healthy. When the tomato plant is ready to be grown outside, then you water it about everyday. And this is how I grew my now really healthy tomato plants.
