Another challenge I have is celery! Actually, I had this impression that growing celery was going to be a big challenge in terms of germinating them and letting them to grow to a decent size. They were in fact very slow to germinate and to get to a decent size to be transplanted. But since transplanted, my celery plants look pretty nice and healthy. Earlier in the season, I had some aphid problems that killed a couple of plants, but the rest 12 or so plants have survived and been doing well. They are just match-stick thin, though!! I can't figure out how to fatten them up. I have been taking the outer layers off for my daily uses.
