Which are my plantings, which are weeds?

As a new gardener the hardest part about growing from seeds is distinguishing your plants from all the other weed sprouts in the dirt.

Spinach looks like blades of grass at first, then gets wider, thicker leaves.


















Kale has a jaggedy third leaf.









Lettuce starts out with soft pale green leaves from the start.

I wish I could tell you what carrots and peas look like!

LOL, I always worry I'm pulling something I wanted there out..so I leave it and then the weeds take over.
