Ping to all the Gardeners
I started an asparagus patch this year for the first time ever; we'll see how it goes. No signs of life yet, but the roots have only been in the ground for about a week now so it's clearly too soon to tell.
Wife reported a dozen white potates sprouting in the bin in the kitchen. You guessed it... into the garden they went. Never had much luck with white potatoes in NC for whatever reason, but maybe this year will be the one.
I have decided to plant my peppers directly into the garden this year instead of starting the plants indoors. I always have high mortality due to poor hardening-off when I start them inside, and I'm thinking that growing them from seed in the garden will solve that problem.
Thank you!
We had salad from the winter garden for Easter. Only have one head left. Perennial bed is almost finished. I have stevia, french tarragon, lavender, and rosemary to put in so far. Hope to get that done this week.
We made flower pots out of newspaper and started a bunch more of tomatoes. All heirlooms. Hubby likes the big tomatoes so that one slice covers the bread on a sandwich. I also like smaller tomatoes for salads so that I don't have to put them in the fridge which ruins the texture. So we have several sizes. LOL.
Have a good week. God bless.
