Where are they at?

The first thing that pops into my head is soil pH. Beans like slightly acidic soil. If your soil is alkaline, that interferes with iron take up.

Quick test: take a scoop of the soil and pour some vinegar on it. If it bubbles, it's probably to alkaline. (The acid vinegar reacting with the alkaline soil.) You can add a soil acidifier to fix that, like chelated iron.

Turnips--- this is my second sowing, they now have 2 leaves, so they need to be thinned,
I really dont know how to get them to grow bigger than a pencil. I have done all that I have red to do.

Just planted these exact turnips today. From Territirial seeds. Also planted Hakeuri (spelling? I don’t have packet in front of me) from Territorial.

I was that way yesterday. Trying to get that groove back today, but so far... Ok, after lunch, up and at 'em!

I MUST get some house work done.

A friend of mine was single after 30 years of marriage. He had this to say:

I see now what people mean about housework. You wash, sweep, scrub, dust. And then, six months later, you have to do it all again!
