We’ve had a few days of above-freezing temps here in central Missouri this week. The weather guessers are now calling for more snow and a return to the deep freeze by Monday.

I found time to place my seed orders with Pinetree and Jungs. I’m glad I didn’t wait any longer as several of the varieties that I was after have already sold out.

My goal for the weekend is to get a new cold frame built. Wish me luck...

just gave a bagful of lettuce from the garden to my friend and his family...they enjoyed it greatly compared to the bag of gourmet weeds for $4 from the store.

I only planted about a dozen seeds of the stuff so I was quite surprised at the amount that came up and how well it produced. I blame the square foot garden and the turkey poop I put in there to fertilize...

I really need to start some tomato seeds soon but just do not seem to get the time to do so. the last possible danger of frost is only a couple of weeks away...

will need to try the coconut coir for the new raised bed that I’m adding in place of some of the more expensive moisture absorbers...
