Project 365 4/13/09
Phase one of operation "Backyard Recovery" is completed. I'm sore and sunburned after all that. The rototiller was a beast and plowed through that ground no problem. I did determine that of all possible future occupations, farmer is no longer on my list.
These grew really fast, though I suspect some may be too "leggy?" Who knows, never grown 'em before.
garden diary winter/spring 2011
March 14th
Yesterday I managed to plant some more spring seeds like mustard, kale, radish, etc and dig up some of the garlic chives that have taken over the garden, to make room for transplants. Today I put in transplants - cabbage, brussels sprouts (my fav), chinese cabbage and some snapdragons. I also planted from spring plantings / seeds in the sideyard containers, a first for the sideyard. I'm hoping the brick wall will help some dill and other greens get a head start so we can have a spring and summer full of herbs. I also need to start some seeds indoors, and I did hose off my seedling trays, but have yet to get around to starting the seeds. We have very limited space indoors for that and I can't afford a "real" seed starter set-up at the moment.
