Still too cold for warm weather crops to be planted here in (M)assachusetts. My spinach came up a couple of weeks ago and is doing fine despite the drought (because I’ve been watering it). My asparagus is in it’s second year since planting the roots and has not come up yet.

We just had a frost last night. I may be planting either next week or the week after and let nature take it’s course. The seed will come up when it’s ready.

Thanks so much for checking in! I’ll be asking both of you lots of questions, as I am planning on starting an asparagus bed (hopefully this year). I know nothing about it except it takes a year or three before you get a crop to eat.
