Ha! I mixed Cosmic Purple with regular carrots using the corn starch method. They are loving this spring weather. I can’t get lettuce to germinate at all. I think it’s still too hot. Some days are right at 80. Maybe it doesn’t really like the sandy soil? Whatchoo reckon?

My basil forest is beautiful because I’m letting it bolt. I have blue basil (flowers are blue) and it’s lovely. If you make pesto out of this basil you need a little sugar because it’s a little “grassy” tasting.

Anybody want some radishes? Come get them.

My lettuce is growing in a salad table in rich potting mix, with dappled sunlight behind the giant tomato vine and at the outer edge of the oak tree. Lettuce is very happy in this setting.
