Thanks.

I’m such a noob!

This year, I finally started mulching the beds with leaves & clippings.

I did get the seedlings started early for a change.

Tomatoes are sprouting on top of the fridge.

Turnips are coming up, possibly brussels sprouts but still no sign of carrots, taters or peas.

I miss the weekly gardening thread.

Make sure to mulch your Peas, they like cool root systems and will get pretty big and the plants will last a lot longer.

Have you ever checked out the gardening forums at gardenweb.com?

They break down their forums into states, plant families, etc. I’ve found lots of great advice there and at least here locally, members have seed and plant swaps and garden tours. It’s a great way to learn about which plants do well in your climate.

They also have forums for cooking, garden art and you name it. It’s a fun ‘place.’
