The Trials of a First Timer

Long Story Short, I have had to replant my cucumbers.

For One Thing, I didn't have the right kind ( in mind ) planted - pickling instead of regular, 

and For Another Thing, they were being decimated by Aphids ( and probably some kind of leaf mildew )  right under my nose, and I was none the wiser.

The Tomatoes and Bell Peppers are doing well, although I DID have to spray the #@@$@ Aphids off of the Bell Peppers as well. 

The Chives have started to flower too - we'll see how THAT goes.
