It's growing great, Had to dig out alot of weeds, new military housing and they didn't do a lawn so I redid the whole backyard and included a garden bed. The grass is finally coming along and I removed the fencing from the grass so the kids could play.
My wife planted the seeds and labeled them but they all washed off. I planted similar looking sprouts together but still some surprises.

The left side was super wet when planting due to the rain gutter spout. I mixed the majority of compost/manure into the left side - the right side is growing like crazy.
After two weeks - mid June

From the lawn, onions front row
basil, habanero, watermelon,lettuce, carrots, more basil in pot middle.

This doubled in size over the last week, not sure what it is
The largest tomato is a sunburst, I think I need to prune the corn in the corner
I was weeding today and the ground under my hand moved, I have a lot of frogs living in and around my garden. I'm pretty sure they are helping w/ the insects. House flys are a real problem. My vermipost bins were really bad(w/ flies), I think I took care of it by covering all the produce w/ lots of paper.

Your veggies are looking good but I have to ask............what do you mean by pruning the corn?
The seed package said to plant 3 seeds then cut the stalks back to 2 when they hit 20 inches. The group in the corner is past 20" and way more than 2 plants.
Got it!!
