I planted about 40 yellow onions in between the rains.
I had a few no-shows in the greenhouse so I replaced them with basil and oregano seeds. Since they take 80 to 90 days to fully grow, I may buy a couple of plants for theĀ interim.
Most of the seedlings are 3 to 4 inches tall.
There was frost last night as the low was 34 degrees; almost a record. Dad always told me to plant tomatoes the 15th of May; I’d cheat and plant May 1st…until a few years ago temperatures were well below 32 on May 3rd and 4th. Lesson learned.
2011 DDC Garden
Finally started planting the DDC garden. It has been very wet, so early vegetables such as potatoes which are normally planted on Good Friday, are being delayed. I planted radish seeds (Champion heirloom) a few days ago. The garden layout is under Pages section of the blog. In the greenhouse, there are jalapenos, red peppers, and spinach seeds growing.
