The first plants

Small lettuce and a tiny radishes
In the past days, the small seeds I sowed have enjoyed the nice sunny weather as much as me and have been starting to grow tiny green plants out of the earth.

The lettuce is already forming a circle, and some radishes are starting to come out in the middle too. It's not my intention to let the lettuce grow out to crops, I am planning to cut it when about 10 centimeters, but I am only wondering if the radishes will have enough place to grow.

The sunflowers are also growing nicely. However small they still might be, you can already sense that in some time they will be strong enough to carry large flowers.
