1 rosemary
2 starter
3 my plant is in a wine barrel near Hailey's mint plant
4 there is a drip line and I've checked my plant 1 time
5 my plant is the same height
6a. roasted chicken with rosemary, b. joe's rosemary bread c.Dried Cherries, Pecans and Rosemary Brie en Croute
7 rosemary can be picked whenever but it would help to wait til the plant is grown most of the way
8 aphids, spider mites, leafminers, wire worms
9 inspect rosemary often and when a small infestation is on the plant spray it with water for 5 seconds

2. Seed
3. I planted my plant by digging three holes in the soil then I placed in two or three seeds in each hole. Next I covered the seeds with soil and then watered then. I planted the seeds on the lower vertical part of the K next to Grace, the peas are planted between spinach and lettuce.
4. I have checked on my plant 4 times so far there is no drip line leading to my plant, I tried to make one but didn't succeed.
5. Since I started with a seed it wasn't big at all from when I last checked it hasn't come up yet.
6. Three recipes that use peas are creamed peas, split pea soup, and beef pot roast.
7. I should harvest my peas about 85 days after planted. I should harvest them when the pea pods of fat and swollen.
8. My plant doesn't require much care except for watering it.
9. Aphids are a major pest to my plant.
10. To organically avoid pests i have to spray cold water on my plant.

You should harvest your plant by plucking your plant 2 to 3 inches from the dirt line
You need to make sure the dirt around your plant doesn't get dry so you must always water it
Bugs such as snails, slugs butterflies and beetles will bother your plant
For your butterfly problem you can mix molasses and water and then spray it on your plant

Garden Pea

I planted my plant in the far corner of the "K" and I planted it next to Broccoli and Spinach.
I have checked on my plant about 5-7 times and yes there is a drip line going to my plant.
When I started my seed looked like a dried pea except it was a little bit smaller than an average pea. I dont see any change from there till now.
Three recipes that you can use to make with peas are twenty-four hour salad, Italian peas, and creamy peas.
I should harvest my plant around 85 after harvest, I should harvest them when the peas and pods are swollen!
My plant doesnt need much care except for watering it.
Aphids is a pest to my plant.
To avoid my plant to get pests is to spray cold water over my plant.

5. it was about 6-7 inches, it really hasnt changed sence i first planted it
6. "Kale and chorizo broth" "Kale pesto" "Indian spiced greens"
7. to harvest kale u want to take off almost all the leaves but leave a few so more can grow back, pull the leaves off the plant gently with out a struggle and be gentle or you could brake the plant.
8. water gently around the roots and not one the leaves or it could damage the roots, this plant is a winter plant.
9. Aphids, cabbage looper, horn worm, cabbage maggot ect.
10. Blast your kale with strong jets of water from your garden hose.
This physically removes and deters insect invasions and also helps kill certain fragile bug species, such as the soft-bodied aphid, and common kale pest.

7) You should harvest kale after the first frost because it actually makes the flavor better.

9) Cabbage moth,cabbage worm, slugs, snails, and cut worms.
10) Boost a lot of water from your hose onto the kale.

1) Cabbage
2) Starter
3) I planted mine next to Makena's seed(don't know what its called). I just dug a small hole and loosened up the roots so they would breathe.
4) I've checked my plant daily, morning and after school, and yes there is a drip line to water my plant.
5) My plant has grown progressively since I planted it when it was very small.
6)Stuffed Cabbage Rolls (Galumpkis), Shrimp and Egg Fried Rice with Napa Cabbage, Barbecued Cabbage
7) The cabbage head needs to be the mature size to harvest. If the cabbage was firm when you would squeeze it, then it would be okay.
8) Make sure that it gets plenty of water and sunlight. Cabbages grow pretty big so they need their spacing.
9) The pests that like to eat my plant are snails, slugs, cutworms, and cabbageworms.
10) I can make garlic water and put it on my cabbage to keep the pests away.

9.Clubroot Stunted growth especially if infected as seedlings. Discoloured leaves which wilt. Roots are a thick distorted mass.
Downy Mildew Light grey powdery patches on the leaves and shoots, normally appearing in spring. The mildew will get right into the plant, eventually killing it.

Aphids These are greenfly and blackfly which will be clearly visible on the leaves and especially tender young shoots. These seriously weaken the plant.
Cabbage Root Fly Stunted growth especially if infected as seedlings. Discoloured leaves which wilt. The roots are black and rotting.
Caterpillars These are visible as they much their way through the leaves. The cure is simply to pick them off by hand.
