Thanks for the thread, and all the great links/educational info. We have had some beautiful spring like days, and I feel so guilty for wasting them. All kinds of gardening chores have been put off in favor of sitting in the glorious sun and drinking tea.LOL.

The winter lettuce continues to produce, and is no longer under cover. The spinach indoors and out has all been harvested and eaten, so will soon be replanting. Indoor lemon tree is very scraggly, but has new blossoms and a new lemon bud growing.

We will be planting some more blackberries, blueberries and strawberries this spring. A new strawberry bed will be made and planted, and the blooms will be pinched off. The old bed will have it's 3rd and final harvest. It will plowed under in June. We haven't decided what will be planted then. Hubby thinks maybe corn. I think maybe something to help build the soil.

Have a great weekend and God bless.

You’re welcome, greeneyes. I’d love to see photos of your new plantings, especially the strawberry bed!
