Very Hungry Caterpillar



We have a very hungry visitor in our garden and we are hoping that he will stay!  Caterpillars love to munch on leaves.  In order for them to have leaves, we have to have healthy soil.  Did you know that to have healthy soil you may need to have potassium, nitrogen and phosphate?  Our soil needed a little bit of all of it so we create a mixture and added it to our gardens.  We are hoping this will make the soil "ideal" for growing all sort of yummy vegetables.  In order to track the progress, we started data collection and will check the height, temperature, and soil fertility every week.
