What did you do in the garden today?

Wow, yay I’m so thankful I was able to do anything in the garden today for the past few days I’ve been in terrible lower back pain but today I feel better. Yay. Praise the Lord. I got an area ready to plant seeds. If I still feel good I’ll plant them later otherwise tomorrow.

Tore out rotted boxes today to start tilling

FYI bolting is triggered by length of day. Here outdoor planted seed will bolt near the end of May no matter how old the plants are. Too long a day under the lights.

I thought it was heat!

Guess that serves me right for putting them under a grow light then.

They’re a lot scrawnier this year too, but that might be the soil mix.

Funny, I hate starting seeds. I only do it because some things the nurseries just don't carry, like all the stupid hot peppers & patio eggplant & weird stuff. I just don't have the room to want to do it nor do I enjoy hardening off & up potting. If I had a real greenhouse or something....maybe. But probably maybe not. I do love things like green beans, squash & cukes that I can direct sow, however.

Beautiful outside, brought the laptop out on the deck to work. Before long it will be too hot for this.

Yup, if I can’t direct sow I hate the whole process. Enjoy your lovely weather while you can!

Heat does play a part in it.

Red or black raspberries? Here we have wild blacks but at my MN. cabin they have wild reds.

Sometimes a plant will pop up in an odd place, I guess birds plant them, too.

I watered the garden for the first time this year. All the peas are up out of the ground now. The old carrot seeds haven't sprouted, but the ones from a new pack of carrot seeds I bought ARE coming up. Maybe carrot seeds have to be fresh.
