My plants aren't growing.  Simple as that.  I put the plants in the raised bed 11 days ago, and they haven't grown much at all.  I've been keeping them nicely watered, they get plenty of sun, but nothing is happening.  I've even had my habanero pepper plant dug up and dragged away by some sort of critter.  (I'm looking at you, squirrel!)

It makes me really sad.  At the suggestion of my mother, I'm going to get some compost or other kind of plant food this weekend and see what happens.  I have a feeling the soil I used was not as good as its price tag suggested.  I have two bags left, which just might be going back to the garden center. 

In the meantime, I hope the plants at least live until I can get them some nourishment, and then at least have a short season of veggies.  Sigh.
