looks like my buttercrunch lettuce is ready to start harvesting...one of my tomatoes is turning color already too I noticed the other day. Haven’t had to water for a couple of days due to the afternoon showers starting early this year. Looks like wildfire season was over before it started.
Oh, I also found a place that sells the big bags of coarse vermiculite - for $27!
That sounds about right (the price). “Spendy” as Hirim Quick would say, but worth it if you are cursed with clay. I did not mean to leave you off of my post about our progress here in unpredictable WI, but I never can remember how to spell our screen name and my poor attempts get rejected by the mods every time. Scroll up for my progress report.
I’ve been itching to put in my tomatoes (beautiful weather the past week). The garden centers are still saying “wait”. Sure enough the weather turned cold last night — in the forties in teh day time and low thrities at night. My tender plants are back indoors.
I read in the paper yesterday that the Ozaukee County corn crop is already more than half planted — early this year.
