Good morning gardeners! Here in Central Mississippi spring type weather will be here soon. I can feel the warmth at the other end of the tunnel! Highs for the next week will be in the 60’s and 70’s and I will be out in the garden and yard cleaning up. I will have around two or three weeks to get the garden area in shape before any plants get transplanted into the garden. Spring officially starts March 20.

If you are just starting out gardening and are in need of advice or just encouragement please feel free to join in. There are many Freepers from all over the Good Ol’ USA that are willing and eager to help.

The Weekly Gardening ping list has grown to 303 Freepers as of yesterday.

Hey, Gang! I was scruffin' around in the muddy, mushy garden today and I found a stalk of STILL GROWING Brussels Sprouts! The were uber-insulated by a thick layer of snow all winter, and it never really got that cold this winter, so they were still putting out sprouts, believe it or not!

Husband will be thrilled...NOT! He thought he wouldn't have to see or smell b. sprouts cookin' again until next fall, LOL!

I also started some cool weather crops today; 'Falstaff' Brussels Sprouts which are purple, 'Franklin' Brussels Sprouts which are regular green, Veronica Romanesco Cauliflower, which is green and looks like a fractal from another planet, 'Mini Chinese Soloist' cabbage and 'Red Russian' kale for the hens.

They were tasty! I’m having the rest of them for lunch today! My co-workers will be so jealous; we’re all Foodies.
