May 1st Weekend

Great weather this weekend, tomatoes are in the cold frame, top off during the day. Seedlings in the garage are all doing well, although peppers and eggplants are very slow to come up.

Fertilized in the garden this weekend, and planted beets, carrots and scallions. Prepped space for the next batch of lettuce to go out.

First lettuces are about four inches across now, and radishes are starting to show first signs of bulbing. We are also seeing the first flowers on the strawberries this week, and blueberries have been in bloom for about the last week.

That's this weekend in the garden.

Weekend Planting and Potatoes!

Last weekend potatoes went in, lettuce was transplanted outside, and peppers, eggplants, a couple additional tomatoes, and another round of lettuce was all started in the garage.

The kids garden is starting to come up, with lettuce, radishes, and today the first peas peaking through.

The kale is wrapping up, the flower buds (garden broccoli) have been picked over a couple times, leaving only very small additional buds. Over the next two weeks, all of the kale will likely be pulled out. With luck, we will only be a couple weeks away from our first garden lettuce salads by then!

The picture shows the potato beds in front, and a few spots in back that have been planted, including the lettuce. Looking forward to seeing the garden all covered in green.
