My radishes are up, but my beans and peppers are still thinking about it. I've transplanted some tomato plants into larger pots, then will transfer them to galvanized tubs along the fence. I'll train them to climb the fence along with the cucumbers and melons. I have some bush squash plant seeds that I will be planting in a few minutes. Plus I'm going to plant some Kohlrabi. I just love them raw with a dip. I'm looking for some fennel seeds, so far I've found none. I'll keep looking.

Gotta start dinner. Boy 1 is coming over in a little while to play golf with Roomey.

You Chicks are sure doing a bang up business Toby. Wish we had some fresh eggs around here.

I have never eaten kohlrabi. I always think it looks like something the Klingons would grow.

I am going to plant a big ole row of mustard greens, one row of turnips, one row of grits, lots of bush butter and green beans, okra, squash, lots of hot peppers (for SIL, he is a true Cajun), bell peppers, going to plant 8 more tomatoes tomorrow, two will be small salad tomatoes, It is going to be fun, lots of work but fun and lots of chicken manure to make them grow. Oh yeah, the garden is on my list of pictures post and soon I hope.
Toby

will you use the fennel for the greens or the seeds?

I use the seeds in italian cooking but have never used the greens in salad. I am not much for cooked greens
