Planting By the Moon

cukes finding trellis
edemame has some blooms
green peas pushing through

pulled the scotch bonnet
no space for non- production
chickens love the scrap

salad needs thinned out
bugs didn't get all the kale
mighty spinach grows

using recipe 
as prescribed once a week and 
buds n blooms monthly

3 kinds of cabbage
rainbows colors of Swiss chard
planted by the moon

Interesting write saying that you plant by when the moon is in the correct phase so that the plant reach its full potential... Sara

Is this really a Haiku? I've never seen them so long.
