Welcome to CJA Agriculture, the blog by Chicago Jesuit Academy students about what's going on in our garden.

Thinning the garden
"Thinning is when you pull out some plants that grew a little and you leave the strongest plants. We thin in order to give that strong plant a chance to grow properly. If we didn't thin we'd have a cluster of plants mis-growing."
--Laron
"My experience of thinning was hard because at first I didn't know what to do. But when I noticed the rest of my teammates doing it I got it. It was fun because I learned how to do it."
--Alzario
